Most of us have either witnessed a crime scene investigation, otherwise known as forensics, or viewed one on TV. From collecting fingerprints to DNA samples to other evidence, these samples are crucial to for the prosecutors’ case in administering justice.
Investigative labs use forensic supplies to maintain chain of custody in evidence collection. Key equipment and supplies are necessary to preserve the integrity of these samples—and of the lab itself.
Here are five for sample handling and preservation:
- Gel electrophoresis systems: Gel electrophoresis is a method to separate DNA, RNA or proteins by electric current typically in an agarose gel
- Sampling bags for collection
- Incubators of various types to provide a controlled environment to conduct many different experiments
- Sterilizers or laboratory autoclaves to keep equipment and supplies free from contamination
- Refrigerators and freezers for preserving evidence
