Abstract:
Since its first use in criminal investigations in 1987, DNA profiling has become the new gold standard for investigations and prosecutions. Academics, politicians and law enforcement officials have presented DNA evidence as a ??scientific hero?? that is capable of solving crimes and preventing miscarriages of justice. However, in spite of this reputation, few studies have explored the impact of this technology on criminal justice practitioners, or on the process of investigating and processing criminal offences. This dissertation provides a comparative study of the use of DNA profiling in two

Abstract:
This dissertation sets forth a foundation for a continuous model for the interpretation of DNA mixture evidence. We take a new approach to modelling electropherogram data by modelling the actual electropherogram as a curve rather than modelling the allelic peak areas under the curve. This shift allows us to retain all the data available and to bypass the approximation of peak areas by GeneMapper R (Applied Biosystems, 2003). The two problems associated with the use of this programme - prohibitive costs and patented processes - are thus avoided.<br>To establish a model for electropherogram data

<p> Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile genetic elements. They are a significant component of many eukaryotic genomes. They are involved in chromosomal rearrangement by serving as substrates for homologous recombination, in creating new genes through a process of TE "domestication", and in modifying and shuffling existing genes by transducing neighboring sequences (Lander et al., 2001). Therefore, both active and inactive TEs are potentially potent agents for genomic change (Kidwell and Lisch, 2001, 2002; Rizzon et al., 2002; Petrov et al., 2003).

Abstract:
Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) has two states of infection, latent and lytic. During the latent state the viral genome remains stable in cells as episomes and replicates with cellular DNA. During the lytic cycle the viral DNA becomes amplified and packaged in newly formed virions. An unsolved problem is whether newly replicated EBV DNA produced upon lytic cycle activation is associated with histones, and if so, whether these histones are acetylated. This question has biological significance as knowing the chromatin structure of genes is important in determining their function and expression profile.

Abstract:
In forensic casework analysis it is necessary to obtain genetic profiles from increasingly smaller amounts of biological material left behind by perpetrators of crime. The ability to obtain profiles from trace biological evidence is demonstrated with so-called 'touch DNA evidence' which is perceived to be the result of DNA obtained from shed skin cells transferred from donor to an object or person during physical contact. However, the current method of recovery of trace DNA involves cotton swabs or adhesive tape to sample an area of interest. This "blind-swabbing" approach may result in the re

Abstract:
Mesozooplankton are of critical importance to marine food webs by transferring energy from the microbial food web to higher trophic levels and depositing energy to the deeper ocean layers through fecal deposition. While decades of research have shown that viruses have significant impacts in the oceans, and infect a wide range of organisms from bacteria to whales, there is still little known about the impacts of viruses on the mesozooplankton community. As copepods are the most abundant mesozooplankton group, this study sought to characterize the viruses present in natural populations of the

Abstract:
As últimas décadas trouxeram grandes avanços tecnológicos às ciências forenses. Um dos marcos dessa evolução foram às pesquisas e os resultados obtidos com a aplicação da Biologia Molecular, como ferramenta de identificação humana a partir da década de 80. Desde então, novos estudos vêm sendo realizados nesta área. Vestígios encontrados em locais de crime são elementos que irão orientar na busca pela elucidação dos fatos. Existem dois tipos de vestígios: os macrovestígios, facilmente identificados e os microvestígios que demandam análises técnicas mais específicas. Dentre os microvestígios, te

Abstract:
The purpose of this thesis is to examine the wrongfully convicted person’s possibilities for taking investigative measures in his or her own case, in order to apply for post-conviction relief according to 58:2 p.4 of the Swedish Code of Judicial Procedure (SCJP), with a particular focus on preservation of evidence and post-conviction DNA testing. Since the legal requirements for reconsidering the preliminary investigation according to 58:6a SCJP are set high, the convicted is, with very few exceptions, left alone to make his or her own attempt at reinvestigating the case, but without legal rig

Abstract:
[Truncated abstract] The collection of buccal cells is common practise in the epidemiological and forensic science. Unlike venipuncture collection of blood; it is a safer, non-invasive method for collection of biological material. The methods by which these cells are collected from the inner cheek of an individual and stored are the key elements in preserving DNA. Typically, forensic samples require long term storage. Samples are commonly collected on cotton swabs and stored moist at low to ultra-low temperatures (less than -20oC). Although this is the method of choice in most forensic facilit
