Blood splatter analysis also known as BPA, is to interpret the bloodstain from a crime scene. In the use of the blood splatter analysis it is design to examine how the blood was shed. Analysis examines the blood from the crime scene by gathering information on the shape, size, location, and distribution of where the blood was shed. With this information these analyst has these physical evidence to recognize the patterns and recreate them. From that point they will be able to say there opinions on
caused the bloodshed. Analysts examine the size, shape, distribution, and location of the bloodstains to decide what happened. BPA uses biology (behavior of blood), physics (cohesion, surface tension, and velocity) and mathematics (geometry, distance, and angle) to assist investigators in answering questions like: • From where did the blood originate from? • What was the cause of the bloodshed? (weapons used) • From what direction was the victim wounded? • What were the positions of the victim/ attacker
The blotches of blood stains on the once pure soul can never be cleansed. As the illusion of blood seeps through the punctured heart, the guilty conscience accumulates the state of mind that justifies the blood shed by one’s urge to exterminate those whom interfere with their “destined” fate. In the play, Macbeth by William Shakespeare, the witches’ prophecies made Macbeth bound to believe that it is plausible, therefore, Macbeth plots a plan executing those who restrain him from his pursuit for
Pattern Analysis examines the static aftermath of blood in motion and identifies size, shape, distribution, location of patterns to determine the physical events that occurred. The interpretation of bloodstains patterns can help determine origin of the bloodstain, position of the victim or suspect, direction of travel, impact angles, and reconstruct past events. The most common type of bloodstain pattern is impact patterns. Impact patterns is blood being acted upon by an amount of force. There are
problems. Sometimes bumps called granulomas form around tattoo ink. Tattooing can also lead to keloids — raised areas caused by an overgrowth of scar tissue. • Bloodborne diseases. If the equipment used to create your tattoo is contaminated with infected blood, you can contract various bloodborne diseases — including tetanus, hepatitis B and he-patitis C. • MRI complications. Rarely, tattoos or permanent makeup
cholesterol, high blood pressure, and increased concentrations of sugar in the blood (or diabetes), play a role in the development of atherosclerosis by damaging the endothelium and inner layers of the arteries.1 Plaque begins to build up and harden in the areas where the inner layers of the arteries are damaged.1 These areas of plaque potentially rupture or burst, which encourages platelets to attack to the site of the injury and clump there, forming blood clots.1 These blood clots combined with
found at a crime scene. Blood stains are one type of evidence that can be found at a crime scene. Blood that is still in the liquid form should be picked up on a gauze pad. Once the blood is dried thoroughly it should be refrigerated and sent to the Laboratory (Andrus et al., n.d., para. 1). If the blood stain is found dried on clothing, the officer should wrap the piece of clothing in clean paper and place it in a sealed and labeled container. An object with dried blood stains needs to be sent to
Familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (feline HCM) in Maine Coons is a very serious myocardial disorder that often leads to sudden death due to heart failure. The Maine Coon (American Longhair) is the largest and oldest natural breed of domestic cat in North America with a distinct appearance with a lion-like ruff and a tail that resembles a raccoon’s and is good at hunting. HCM is when “a primary structural disorder of the myocardium; characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy… no symptoms to
2 MINERALS:- 1.2.1 DEFINITION: Minerals are naturally occurring inorganic substances required in trace amounts for normal body functions such as the development of strong bones and teeth, proper muscle and nerve functions and construction of red blood cells [10]. 1.2.2 KINDS: There are two types of minerals our body needs and these are called essential minerals [11]. Essential minerals are divided into: • Major or macro minerals • Trace or micro minerals 1) Macro minerals are present at large

acids in pig blood by examining levels in red blood cells, plasma, albumin, low density lipoprotein (LDL),and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL). It is important to note that when a phenolic compound is present in body fluids, it generally occurs in one or several conjugated forms such as methyl, glucuronide and sulfate, (Proudfoot, Puddey, Beilin, Stocker, & Croft, 1997). There are several methods used to determine bioavailability of phenolic acids and possible metabolites in blood. Some of these
• Executive Summary (an introduction/background to the case study) The clotting cascade is essential in the human body to allow for healing of a broken artery or vein. If we don’t have these clotting factors or clotting cascade it can lead to serious consequences such causing bleeding out eventually leading to death as shown in haemophilia. The clotting cascade consists of primary and secondary haemostasis. Primary haemostasis being the formation vasoconstriction and platelet aggregation at the
RAAS (Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone System) plays a role in the homeostatic process such as blood pressure and fluid volume control1. Renin is secreted in the blood from cells that are lining the glomeruli of the kidneys. The renin-secreting cells are sensitive to changes in blood flow and blood pressure. Angiotensinogen, a glycosylated protein that is primarily synthesized and secreted by the liver as well as other tissues is the sole precursor for angiotensin peptide. Renin catalyzes the conversion
Better Gang Prevention The Gang Prevention and Deterrence Act was presented by Sen. Orrin Hatch and Diane Feinstein in the winter of 2003. The Act stated an increase in funding for the federal prosecutors and FBI agents needed to conduct coordinated enforcement efforts against violent gangs. There are much better alternatives than trying to pass a law that most people will never even hear about, or increasing funding for prosecutors and FBI agents. Creating new gang-prosecution
Old Misery and Miss. Brill Throughout quarter three, our class has read four short stories, each one portraying human behaviors. I am comparing and contrasting two characters from “Miss. Brill” by Katherine Mansfield and “The Destructors” by Graham Greene. Miss. Brill and Old Misery or Mr. Thomas have many similarities and differences including the internal forces that affect them and the external forces that make them who they are. Miss. Brill is an older woman who is depicted as lonely because
transport medium of the blood. The blood is contained within vessels, with substances being released out of, or into the blood as it flows through certain vessels called capillaries. Blood
Cyclophosphamide is an alkylating agent used in the treatment of lymphoma, carcinomas and sarcomas in dogs. It is increasingly being used in ‘metronomic’ chemotherapy protocols.[1] Cyclophosphamide is a prodrug that requires oxidation in the liver to form the active metabolites which are in turn are converted to phosphoramide mustard and acrolein.[2] Phosphoramide mustard causes DNA damage and acrolein has inflammatory effects. Like many chemotherapy agents, cyclophosphamide may cause myelosuppression
Working with less money and old equipment Dr. Francis also has to deal with politicians and the gay community. Furthermore, he has to reason with the CDC who thinks the disease is transmitted through blood. Throughout the movie, Dr. Francis faces many controversies and rivalries among CDC, FDA, blood bank, and the government who doesn’t seem to care about this epidemic.
like thick sinew, and so cutting it requires a suitably sharp instrument. Provided that umbilical severance occurs after the cord has stopped pulsing (5-20 minutes after birth), there is ordinarily no significant loss of either venous or arterial blood while cutting the cord. Umbilical cord clamping is part of the third stage of labor, the time between delivery of the baby and the placenta (Rabe, et al.; 2007). Cut the umbilical cord represents the beginning of an independent
life processes. Respiration is the chemical process of releasing energy from glucose, and in the case of aerobic respiration, in the presence of oxygen. Gas exchange is the physical process by which the oxygen n is absorbed from the air and into the blood stream and carbon dioxide is released. Gas exchange is a two-way diffusion of oxygen and carbon dioxide into and out of cells across a semi permeable membrane. Gas exchange efficiency can be increased by a number of variables, there must be a large
