Hello, could someone explain to me a procedure for DNA recovery after cyanoacrylate fuming (superglue) + staining. Do you previously decontaminate the surface with bleach or exituplus and then rinse with Miliq water (to remove decontaminating substances)? Which kind of solvent used to dissolve cyanoacrylate layer in the swabbed? Acetone, chloroform...?
Best regards
I am trying to show secondary and tertiary transfer in a crime scene scenario, I cannot directly use DNA as my budget does not permit this. I'm going to use two different coloured fluorescent dyes as a representation of DNA but I do not know how to interpret this into a crime scene like scenario. I am not using DNA in this project full stop the dye is being used to represent DNA.
Hi All,
I am planning my Msc dissertation and I want to find dataset(s) from crime scenes and information about the criminals linked to these crimes. Ideally, I would like personal traits as well other than sex, age, race, and income, or previous convictions.
What I am trying to do is try to create a predictive model where investigators will insert data of a new crime scene and the model will give them the profile of a criminal they should be looking for.
I understand these datasets may exist but not be available to the public. There is plenty of information online about crimes, crime scenes, and the offenders but they are scattered around in books, articles and websites and it will take too long to gather it all in a dataset in time. I need quite a few records in order to have meaningful results and avoid as much as I can, possible bias.
