Forensic Chemistry of Latent Biological Residues – Training Services

Forensic Chemistry of Latent Biological Residues – Training Services provides participants with a comprehensive understanding of detecting and analyzing latent biological residues in forensic investigations. The training covers identification and characterization of trace biological materials such as blood, saliva, semen, and skin cells, along with proper sample collection, preservation, and contamination control techniques. Participants will learn advanced analytical methods including PCR, immunoassays, mass spectrometry, and microscopy to ensure sensitive and accurate detection. Emphasis is placed on interpreting results in real-world criminal cases, including sexual assaults and cold cases. The course also addresses chain-of-custody procedures, legal considerations, and courtroom presentation standards. By the end of the program, learners will be equipped with both theoretical knowledge and practical skills to analyze latent biological residues effectively.
