Contents:
Transfer of matter -- DNA -- Trace DNA -- Trace DNA sources -- Medical exhibits -- Clothing and implements -- Inadvertent DNA transfer.
Summary: "Forensic DNA Transfer provides a guide to the recognition and current understanding of DNA transfer in forensic criminal investigations. Increased improvements in technology mean that it is now routinely possible to obtain DNA profiles from non-visible deposits. How or when the DNA in question was deposited may be an issue in the context of the case, especially if the donor of the DNA is not in dispute. A DNA profile alone cannot reveal when or how that DNA was deposited at a crime scene, nor can it reveal the body matter from which it originated. Issues of transfer associated with activities may be debated - which the traditional discrimination purpose of DNA profiling cannot address"-- Provided by publisher.
