DNA Technology in Crimes Is there a better way of solving crimes with DNA evidence to help investigators? The use of DNA technology is the best way to solve investigations. DNA makes it possible to identify people and to know who was at the crime scene based on a little piece of evidence. It helps solve crimes‚ and even‚ open cold‚ unsolved cases. DNA technology in criminal investigations has become an essential tool because of its ability to identify culprits through the use of fingerprints‚ blood

PPE is a vital part to an investigation; not only for preserving the crime scene but also ensuring the safety of the forensic scientist. PPE comes in all shapes and forms‚ ranging from latex or nitrile gloves‚bubble suits‚ face masks‚ eye protection etc. In this lab‚ the group investigated the living room where a suspected stabbing occurred (living room 1). The PPE required for this investigation included: latex gloves‚ disposable filter masks‚ and shoe covers. Each piece of PPE was significant to

Design: Investigation of Fermentation Introduction Introduction Yeast (Saccharomyces)is a single-celled microorganism in the Fungi family. It anaerobically respires sugars to produce ATP‚ as well as the waste products ethanol and carbon dioxide gas. This process is known as fermentation. There are various factors that affect the rate at which yeast respires. Aim To investigate the effect of concentration of table salt (sodium chloride) on the rate of fermentation of sucrose using yeast‚ measured

Over the last three decades the importance of DNA in the dispensing of just has been on a constant rise. Deoxyribonucleic acid‚ most commonly known as DNA‚ is a molecule found in every living organism. DNA is responsible for storing an individual’s genes. As an investigative tool DNA is a very useful tool as it can be used to identify persons of interest relevant to particular crime scenes (McEwen‚ T. 2011). DNA alone is not able to help identify how someone looks or their characteristics; however

scientists use forensics to perform experiments on evidence to solve their cases. “... [F]orensic scientists do invaluable work linking evidence from crime scenes- such as fingerprints‚ injuries‚ weapons‚ DNA‚ computer data‚ drugs and counterfeit goods- to criminals themselves” (“Introduction”). The DNA found at the scene is inspected to see if it pertains to the crime. An important part of a forensic scientist’s job is to separate out important‚ unimportant‚ and non-essential evidence (Woodford). However

DNA STRUCTURE AND REPLICATION One may wonder how a single cell becomes two cells‚ and why this is ultimately important to life. For this essay‚ it would be much too difficult to discuss the process of cell division‚ which is the biological basis of life. That being said‚ this essay will examine more closely the precursor to cell division‚ also known as DNA replication. DNA replication is the process of copying a double-stranded DNA strand on a chromosome within a cell. The process‚ in its totality

Background on Genomic DNA Isolation and Purification Generally‚ all methods involve the disruption and lysis of cells. This is followed sometimes by the removal of RNA (by RNAses‚ salt or other methods). Choosing which method to use will depend on many selection factors including: DNA is isolated from proteins by several methods including digestion of proteins by the enzyme proteinase K. Proteins are removed subsequently by salting-out‚ organic extraction‚ or binding of the DNA to a solid-phase support

information on what DNA replication looks like. The sources showed me what a strand of DNA looks like as well as giving me an explanation of what occurs during DNA replication. As my model is colour coded it makes it clearer as to what is occurring during each step in DNA replication as well as what each element is. It also clarifies what the external elements are when DNA replicates i.e. helicase‚ polymerase and DNA ligase. However‚ there are also limitations to my DNA replication model.
