At arrival, he discovered variations of individual evidence—some of which included multiple sets of latent fingerprints and a blood spatters—that could lead to a possible suspect or even the culprit responsible. Immediately, the forensic specialist begins to powder, lift, and collect the evidence. Considering the value of the individual evidence found—as D. P. Lyle stated in Forensic for Dummies was the “narrow down of evidence to a single, individual source,”—how great of an impact could those fingerprints and deoxyribonucleic acid filled blood spatters have on the arising case?…

significant change to the platelet count that has been established to be 10 µM. Such was confirmed by the flow cytometry that exhibited the highest increment in larger platelets, with increase ranging between 10 and 20 µM of ADP. However, 20 µM could not be used because it would cause excessive aggregation. Platelets contained in population 1 (P1) area are all of the same size as that of the resting platelets and they are assumed not to be activated. Whereas, the platelets in population 2 (P2) area tend to be bigger.…

For example, trauma can cause Subdural and epidural bleeding. Bleeding are caused by varies of reasons that will be discussed later in this paper. Bleeding within the brain between inner and outer layers of tissue that covered the brain cause compression of tissue from an expanding hematoma or hematomas, and thus, result in distort and injure tissue. Also, the pressure to tissue may lead to a loss of blood supply to affected tissue with resulting infarction, and the blood released by brain hemorrhage appears to have direct toxic effects on brain tissue and vasculature. Inflammation contributes to the secondary brain injury after hemorrhage.…
