substances (I’ll try my best with this one since I barely know much about it myself.)

What we’re covering…

Page 3: Crime    Busters

1. Take a coffee filter and draw a dot on it with the substance given

Paper Chromatography Procedure

2. Place the coffee filter over the cup of water. Make sure that the water doesn’t directly touch the substance dot on the filter.

Instruction: Students will analyze evidence from paper chromatography (ink pens, juices, Kool-Aid, etc.). The paper chromatogram(s) will be collected with

the score sheet. No calculations are expected to be performed.

After the procedure the water should have started

to seep up towards the ink, causing colors to run.

Paper Chromatography Results

It should look vaguely like this when you’re

done.

Just as a suggestion, try to do this experiment first during the experiment that way the water can seep

through for a little longer. Not only that , but it’s simple and quick and easy to get out of the way.

There are 3 types of

fingerprints:1.Arch

2.Whorl3.Loop

Fingerprints

Instructions: Students may be asked to identify different patterns on fingerprint evidence such as the difference between arches, whorls,

and loops.

You should know that no 2

fingerprints are alike.

Page 7: Crime    Busters

You can see one way to tell the difference between the three types is where their deltas and cores are located.Delta: Triangular area usually shaped like a T-junctionCore: Center of the pattern.

Differentiating Fingerprints

Page 8: Crime    Busters

Loops have one or more ridges entering from one side, curving, and then going out the same side it entered. The ridges in loops double back on themselves. All loops have elements called a delta and a core. About 65% of fingerprints have loops.

Loops

Page 9: Crime    Busters

Whorls have a circular pattern and have at least two deltas and a core (center of the circles). Whorls look a little like target shapes or whirlpools – circles within circles. Whorls make up 35% of patterns seen in human fingerprints

Whorls

Page 10: Crime    Busters

Arches are the least common pattern making up

only 5% of all pattern types. Arches are ridgelines that rise in the center and create a wave like

pattern. The ridges enter from one side and exit the other side with a rise in the middle. They do

not have a delta or a core and can be broken into two sub-groups:

Plain arch – which has a gentle rise.Tented arches - have a steeper rise than plain arches.

Match the DNA found at the crime scene with

one of the suspects The bands are lengths of DNA strands located o that

person's chromosomes The dark bands represent the end/beginning of a new DNA

strand The more bands that match a certain sample the greater

probability that their DNA are the same.

DNA Evidence

Instructions: Students may be asked to compare DNA chromatograms/ electropherograms from materials found at the scene to those suspects.

Similar to this, but in black in white.

Shoeprints/ Tracks

Just match the print found at the crime scene with the one of the suspect’s and explain how you got that conclustion.
