The introduction of scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive x-ray analysis to forensic science has provided additional methods by which investigative evidence can be analyzed. The importance of evidence from the scene of a crime or from the personal belongings of a victim and suspect has resulted in the development and evaluation of SEM/x-ray analysis applications to various types of forensic evidence. The intent of this paper is to describe some of these applications and to relate their importance to the investigation of criminal cases.The depth of field and high resolution of the SEM are an asset to the evaluation of evidence with respect to surface phenomena and physical matches (1). Fig. 1 shows a Phillips screw which has been reconstructed after the head and shank were separated during a hit-and-run accident.

Virus Integration

Aim and background Hepatitis B virus is implicated in the development of hepatocellular caracinoma. No oncogenes have been identified within the viral genome. Furthermore, it frequently fragments after integration into the hepatocyte genome. Simultaneous investigations of hepatitis B virus integration patterns and genetic changes in precancerous tissues are important to understand the role played by hepatitis B virus integration in hepatocellular caracinoma. Method We used a combination approach of dual characterization of highly polymorphic loci and the change in hepatitis B virus-DNA integration pattern. Large regenerative nodules were dissected from 6 explanted hepatitis B virus infected cirrhotic livers. Nodules within each liver segment were schematically mapped and histopathologically analyzed. Genomic DNA from each nodule was analyzed for hepatitis B virus integration and the genetic stability of 12 microsatellite loci including D3S2321, D8S1022, D17S1159, D4S2281, D5S1/2, D16S675, D16S685, D16S490, D16S526, D16S673, D16S677 and D16S690. Results Data from different liver segments revealed few viral integrations and average allele loss. The most exciting results came from a segment containing a set of clonally and spatially related nodules having similar histologic features, a progressive lineage of allele loss, HBV integration and loss of integration. Conclusions This model portrait, a scenario of genetic events that precede tumor formation where the acquisition and loss of hepatitis B virus integrations in clonally related regenerative nodules, might explain how the virus acts as a hit-and-run mutagen.
