The document discusses the identification and analysis of bodily fluids in forensic investigations. It explains that serology, the analysis of bodily fluids, precedes DNA analysis and involves visual examination of stains as well as presumptive and confirmatory tests to identify fluids like blood, semen, and saliva. A variety of chemical tests are used to detect enzymes or proteins in different bodily fluids that can identify the fluid and potentially link it to a individual.

Left at the Scene of the Crime! An Introduction to Forensic ScienceDanielle Snowflack
In this Forensic Science Lesson, students explore many different aspects of a crime scene investigation. First, students utilize critical reading skills through the interpretation of a “Police Report”. Next, students will analyze simulated crime scene and suspect samples using the Kastle-Meyer test, Blood Group Typing, and Agarose Gel Electrophoresis. The results will be presented as a Forensic Science report in the “court of law”. After performing this investigation, your students will have experience with data collection, critical analysis of results, and scientific inquiry. This will help them to transform advanced topics in genetics and biotechnology into a concrete scientific understanding.
Enzymes are biological molecules (proteins) that act as catalysts and help complex reactions occur everywhere in life. Let's say you ate a piece of meat. Proteases would go to work and help break down the peptide bonds between the amino acids.
A chemical substance produced in the body that controls and regulates the activity of certain cells or organs. Many hormones are secreted by special glands, such as thyroid hormone produced by the thyroid gland.
A workshop hosted by the South African Journal of Science aimed at postgraduate students and early career researchers with little or no experience in writing and publishing journal articles.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. Forensic Science is the application of scientific analysis to
law enforcement- Forensic Toxicology, Document
examination, Forensic Entomology, etc
Every Forensic process starts from the crime scene
Branch of forensic science that deals with the
identification and analysis of bodily fluids - Forensic
Serology
Serology precedes DNAAnalysis in a Forensic Lab
2
3. Around 1900, Karl Landsteiner discovered that there
are four different types of human blood based on the
presence or absence of specific antigens found on the
surface of the red blood cells. This lead to the blood
groups A,B,AB and O
In 1940, Landsteiner and Weiner reported the discovery
of the Rh factor by studying the blood of the Rhesus
monkey
3
4. To know how suspected bodily fluids are identified and
analyzed in Forensic investigations
4
5. Bodily fluids are liquids that originate from inside the
body of humans
Blood, Semen ,Saliva
Blood is the most common
Biological stains in the dried state are
reasonably stable and can be detected months
or years after being deposited
5
6. Is the fluid or stain blood ,semen ,saliva ,etc?
Is it of animal or human source?
Can it be linked to a particular species or individual?
6
7. Visual/Physical examination- Normally based on the
experience of the Analyst. This isn't admissible in a
court of law. It can only give a clue to the analyst
Presumptive test: This test tells the presence or absence
of a suspected fluid. Cannot confirm whether it’s from
animal or human. Eg. Blood
Confirmatory test: This test gives a high degree of
specificity for the body fluid in question. Eg. Human
blood
7
8. Use to visualize hidden stains in Clothing and other
materials
After detection of stains, presumptive tests can then be
performed
A dark room is needed
8
9. Some presumptive and confirmatory tests can react to
the presence of other substances aside the suspected
fluid to give a positive result- False positive
Some presumptive and confirmatory tests can give a
negative result as a result of the suspected fluid being
insufficient for the test- False negative
Reagent or kit failure can also give false positive or
false negative results to serological tests. This problem
can be avoided with testing the reagent or kit on a
known bodily fluid (+ve Control) and a reagent blank (-
ve control)

10. Benzidine Colour Test - Benzidine is carcinogenic
so not used as often. Benzidine + Blood Stain +
Hydrogen peroxide = pink color
Kastle-Meyer Colour Test -Phenolphthalein +
Bloodstain + Hydrogen peroxide = pink color
Luminol Test - Reacts with blood to produce
luminescence (glow)
Hemastix: use to detect blood in urine but is now
widely use to detect blood at the crime scene and
in the lab. Reagent strips with TMB
(Tetramethylbenzadine) ends.TMB changes from
orange to green when it comes into contact with
blood
10
12. Acid Phosphatase Test: Acid phosphatase
(AP) is an enzyme secreted by the Prostate
gland into seminal fluid
Several chemicals detect AP in semen- Alpha
Naphthylphosphate: turns purple with semen
Fast blue B Dye: turns purple with semen
4-methyl umbelliferyl phosphate: glows with
semen contact
400 times AP in semen than any other bodily
fluid
Reaction time of less than 30 secs. means you
have found semen and not any other thing
12
13. Amylase Test: Of the forensic laboratories
that perform presumptive testing for
saliva, the detection of amylase, an
enzyme found at high levels in saliva, is
currently the most widely utilized method
Amylase is found in a variety of body
fluids; saliva, blood, urine, sweat, tears,
semen, breast milk, feces, and vaginal
secretions , but is more concentrated in
saliva
Phabedas and Rapid Stain Identification of
Human Saliva (RSID™-Saliva) Kits used
by many crime labs for presumptive and
confirmatory tests
13
14. Jaffe test: Creatinine can serve as a screening test for
urine
To a drop of stain extract on filter paper, add one drop
of Picric acid followed by one drop of 5% Sodium
hydroxide. Brown/orange color shows presence of
Creatinine
14
15. Precipitin Test: Combining Human antiserum and
human blood gives agglutination
This principle has been employed in the production of
many commercial kits Eg. Hexagon OBTI Kit
Requires only small amount of blood
Dried blood stains as old as 10 - 15 years work
15
17. Electrophoretic Method: Human antibodies and
bloodstain are placed in wells on electrophoresis plate
Electrical current is used to move antibodies and
antigens towards each other
If antibodies and antigens move towards each other and
form a line of precipitation, it is human blood
17
18. Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA or p30) Test: Prostate-
specific antigen, or PSA, is a protein produced by cells
of the prostate gland
PSA is produced for the ejaculate, where it
liquefies semen and allows sperm to swim freely
PSA is present in small quantities in the serum of men
with healthy prostates
18
19. When PSA is isolated and injected into rabbits, an
immune response is triggered which produces
antibodies for the PSA (anti-PSA)
Serum is then collected from the rabbit
Suspected human semen is placed in one well of an
electrophoretic plate and anti-PSA is placed in the
opposite well
When an electric potential is applied, the antigens and
antibodies move toward each other
Formation of a visible line midway between the two
wells shows the presence of human semen.
19
21. Identification and analysis of various bodily fluids is
paramount in the investigation of many crimes
Presumptive and confirmatory tests can be performed
at the crime scene with the advent of simple-to-use
commercial kits
