  2. 1. Analysis of domestic dog mitochondrial DNA sequence variation for forensic investigations

    Author : Helen Angleby; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biotechnology; forensics; mtDNA; control region; hair; domestic dog; breed; Bioteknik; Bioengineering; Bioteknik;

    Abstract : The first method for DNA analysis in forensics was presented in 1985. Since then, the introduction of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has rendered possible the analysis of small amounts of DNA and automated sequencing and fragment analysis techniques have facilitated the analyses.

  4. 2. Bayesian networks: exact inference and applications in forensic statistics

    Author : Ivar Simonsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bayesian networks; variable elimination algorithm; forensic statistics; relationship inference; mutation models; relationship inference;

    Abstract : Exact inference on Bayesian networks has been developed through sophisticated algorithms. One of which, the variable elimination algorithm, identifies smaller components of the network, called factors, on which local operations are performed. In principle this algorithm can be used on any Bayesian network. READ MORE

  5. 3. Cell and Particle Trapping in Microfluidic Systems Using Ultrasonic Standing Waves

    Author : Mikael Evander; Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; acoustic particle manipulation; standing waves; trapping; ultrasound; cell handling; particle handling; Microsystem technology; lab on a chip; microfluidics;

    Abstract : Analysis methods are currently being miniaturized in order to save time and money while achieving higher sensitivities. The ultimate goal is to create a lab-on-a-chip where all analysis steps and instruments can be automated and integrated into a single chip. READ MORE
