If the compounds designed in the same manner (different from luminol) only respond to iron ions, the fact about the images taken at the scene of a crime is based on blood samples will be obtained in a more evidential manner/with more clear evidence. After this study, the chemiluminescent ...
The necessity of a specific light source and working in the dark can be quite impractical when analyzing forensic evidence [4]. Then, luminol is a preliminary test, which is not corrosive and can be applied on all types of surfaces [5]. It can be used to detect the presence of the ...
It has a promising application in forensic science, especially in the case of fragmentary available data after the discovery of crime evidence, when it is necessary to determine the age of a victim or a criminal. Like all the previously discussed blood parameters, this one is numerical and the...
This bloodstain evidence test kit was designed for forensic use and includes sterile collection media with three reagent chemicals used in this order: ethanol, phenolphthalein reagent, and hydrogen peroxide. The sample turns pink in the presence of blood from humans or other animals. This is a no...
Understanding blood splatter on a wall or various surfaces can be instrumental in formulating if a crime was committed and if the blood discovered at the crime scene can be used as evidence. The first documentation of blood splatter research occurred at the Institute for Forensic Medicine in ...
Although traditionally perceived as a fruitless task due to the destructive nature of the fire and subsequent fire suppression efforts, evidence recovery from an arson scene, whether a crime in itself or as concealment for another, is paramount. The importance of this recovery is echoed by recent...
Splatter: Why Do Blood Patterns Work? According to the National Forensic Science Technology Center “blood behaves according to certain scientific principles, trained bloodstain pattern analysts can examine the blood evidence left behind and draw conclusions as to how the blood may have been shed (Cr...

Bloodstain pattern analysis is a forensic science discipline which reconstructs a blood shedding event and can provide crucial evidence in some legal cases. Several reports have questioned the validity of bloodstain pattern analysis, including a 2009 Nat
