    • Degradation of Beta-Actin in aging blood and semen stains 

      Beaton, Elizabeth; Allen, Robert; Fu, Jun (Oklahoma State University Center for Health Sciences, 2022-02-18)
      Piecing together a crime scene is one of the most significant components of any forensic investigation and estimating the age of biological stains at a scene can be crucial to the case. Several studies have demonstrated a ...

    • Detection of RNA methylation patterns of forensically relevant transcripts in dried bloodstains 

      Lohr, Chaelynne; Fu, Jun; Allen, Robert (Oklahoma State University Center for Health Sciences, 2022-02-18)
      RNA degradation kinetics can be used to estimate the age of a biological sample found at a crime scene. RNA sequencing of transcripts from various tissue types shows that degradation occurs faster at the 5’ end than the ...
