Examen integrado de ADN con análisis de biomarcadores fluorescentes

Human identification constitutes a fundamental aspect of forensic science, particularly within the context of criminal investigations, mass disasters, and armed conflicts. The present study introduces an integrated methodology employing fluorescence to visualize latent fingerprints, analyze biomarkers, and examine DNA for profiling within a unified process. The application of fluorescent dyes and luminescent probes facilitates the imaging of fingerprints on complex surfaces, as well as the detection of biomarkers present in sweat and sebaceous secretions, such as NADH. The analysis of NADH yields information pertinent to forensic medicine and molecular biology, including potential time of death estimation. We introduce a complex approach for the simultaneous analysis of DNA, biomarkers, and sweat and sebaceous secretions components using UV-VIS spectrophotometry, spectrofluorimetric, fluorescence stereomicroscopy, PCR, and electrophoresis. This methodology integrates imaging, biochemistry, and genetics to construct a comprehensive biological profile, marking a significant advancement in interdisciplinary human identification.
