to modern genetic analysis? What did this person contribute? The genetics laboratory is the best choice when blood is found at a crime scene. Alec Jefferys contributed to modern genetics analysis by inventing what is now an essential technique called a polymerase chain reaction. How are computers used in fingerprint analysis? They are used to identify minutiae which may be loops‚ dots‚ forks‚ islands and so forth. Comparison points must be perfectly matched for two fingerprints to be considered

Introduction to the Fingerprint Technology Fingerprint technology is a part of biometric technology that is made to recognize special characteristics of an individual. Basically it involves an individual’s fingerprint‚ where those minute raised ridges on our volar pads are called ‘friction ridge skin’ is special from one person to another. For this reason fingerprints are able to be used as a form of personal identification as it is reliable and accurate. No one would have to remember passwords

Nowadays with the advent of technology digital technology such as video cameras are also used to record the nature of the scene. Fingerprints are taken where possible and if the crime scene is outdoors the area is marked out and searched. Internal crime scenes are photographed‚ blood spatter patterns are measured and documented‚ and bloodstains on carpets and floors are measured for

Introduction Strategies in digital forensics do not have an institutionalized and predictable model. There is a need for a universal process inside forensic examinations. Although fundamental procedures for performing a comprehensive digital forensic investigation‚ most procedures are not universal and in this way don’t have the capacity to be exchanged through the cases. In a digital forensic investigation‚ interview process is very important while deciding who‚ what‚ where‚ when‚ why‚ and how.

The idea of using the fingerprint to identify people is not new (Ashbaugh‚ 1999; German‚ 2006). Fingerprinting’s history goes all the way back to the third century BC‚ when the Chinese would apply ink to their fingers and then place it on official assignments‚ as a way of signing it. These marks they used‚ however‚ as a signature‚ rather than a means of identifying someone. Centuries later‚ a professor in plant morphology‚ Marcello Malpighi‚ described fingerprints as having ridges‚ spirals and loops
