Determination of the origin of the flow of blood. Determination of the approximate time the crime was committed. cont…SOME CHARACTERISTICS OF BLOOD:: SOME CHARACTERISTICS OF BLOOD: The circulating tissue of the body 1 cc of blood: 5,000,000 red cells. Man of average size: about 6 quarts of blood Made up of FORMED ELEMENTS {a. RBC (Erythrocytes) b. WBC (Leucocytes) c. PLATELETS (Thrombocytes)} and PLASMA (liquid portion of blood; composing about 65% of the total blood volume)SOME CHARACTERISTICS OF BLOOD:: SOME CHARACTERISTICS OF BLOOD: Serum – a straw-yellowish liquid that can be seen when blood is allowed to clot. cont…PROBLEMS IN THE STUDY OF BLOOD:: PROBLEMS IN THE STUDY OF BLOOD: Where blood has to be searched for. Collection, preservation and transportation of specimen suspected to contain blood. Does the stain contain blood or another substance?PROBLEMS IN THE STUDY OF BLOOD:: PROBLEMS IN THE STUDY OF BLOOD: If the stain is that of blood, is it human or animal? If the stain is of human blood, did it come from the victim, the accused or from other persons? cont…Whether Stain Is of Blood or Another Substance: Whether Stain Is of Blood or Another Substance Preliminary Test (a.k.a.: Presumptive or Color Test) – a positive result is not conclusive that the stain is blood but a negative result is conclusive that the stain is not blood. REASON: Other substances may yield the same reaction as blood. This includes: sputum, nasal secretion, plant juices, formalin, etc.Whether Stain Is of Blood or Another Substance: Whether Stain Is of Blood or Another Substance B. Confirmatory Tests – The actual proof that a stain is blood consists in establishing the presence of characteristic blood pigment, hemoglobin or one of its derivatives. The 3 Confirmatory Tests commonly employed are Teichmann, Takayama and Wagenhaar Tests. They are designed to show the presence of hemoglobin in a suspected bloodstain by the appearance of specific crystals observed under a microscope. cont…Preliminary Tests for the Presence of Blood: Preliminary Tests for the Presence of BloodPreliminary Tests for the Presence of Blood: Preliminary Tests for the Presence of Blood cont…Preliminary Tests for the Presence of Blood: Preliminary Tests for the Presence of Blood cont…Preliminary Tests for the Presence of Blood: Preliminary Tests for the Presence of Blood cont…Preliminary Tests for the Presence of Blood: Preliminary Tests for the Presence of Blood cont…Confirmatory Tests: Confirmatory Tests Teichmann or Haemin Crystal Test – Dark brown rhombic crystals arranged singly or in clusters Takayama or Haemochromogen Crystal Test – Large rhombic crystals of salmon-pink color arranged in clusters, sheaves and other formsConfirmatory Tests: Confirmatory Tests Wagenhaar Test or Acetone-Haematin – Small dark, circular crystals cont…Whether Blood Is of Human or Animal: Whether Blood Is of Human or Animal Precipitin Test (human antiserum) – The formation of gray precipitation ring at the interface of the two layers within 20 minutes indicates that the stain is human blood.ORIGIN OF BLOOD: ORIGIN OF BLOOD This is determined by blood grouping. A-B-O system, which was discovered by Karl Landsteiner in early 1900s, was the first system of blood grouping.SUMMARY OF THE COMMON BLOOD GROUP SYSTEM: SUMMARY OF THE COMMON BLOOD GROUP SYSTEMBLOOD OF DISPUTED PARENTAGE: BLOOD OF DISPUTED PARENTAGEBLOOD OF DISPUTED PARENTAGE: BLOOD OF DISPUTED PARENTAGE cont…OTHER BODILY FLUIDS: OTHER BODILY FLUIDS It has been found that some individuals secrete in their fluids – such as: semen, saliva, urine and vaginal fluids and substances, corresponding to their blood groups. Therefore, it is possible to determine the ABO blood group of suspected stains of body fluids from the secretors.OTHER BODILY FLUIDS: OTHER BODILY FLUIDS A blood also extracted from individuals suspected to be intoxicated are examined to determine whether they are under the influence of alcohol or not, at the time of the extraction. The percentage of alcohol obtained from the blood are examined and interpreted by the medico-legal officer to determine the percentage of alcohol level in the blood. cont…THE PERISHABLE NATURE OF BLOOD: THE PERISHABLE NATURE OF BLOOD Blood is type of evidence, which undergoes a rapid change in its character with the passage of time, as the process of clothing and drying commence almost immediately on exposure to air. Furthermore, blood offers little resistance to decomposition, especially when exposed to certain conditions and influences, which if prolonged, will cause the specimen to lose its identity.THE PERISHABLE NATURE OF BLOOD: THE PERISHABLE NATURE OF BLOOD It is therefore extremely important that blood samples be sent to the laboratory as soon as possible after their discovery or scientifically preserve. Prior to the general search of the crime scene, the floor should be examined carefully in order to minimize the danger of loss or destruction caused by being walked upon by persons otherwise engaged in the investigation. cont…GUIDE TO PHYSICAL EVIDENCE COLLECTION: GUIDE TO PHYSICAL EVIDENCE COLLECTION Amount Desired Specimen – Liquid Known Samples Standard – One tube each (sterile) 5cc-10cc blood only.
