	Forensic DNA Analysis: Technology and Application (BP443e) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		The principal difference between the two technologies is the use of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to amplify the amount of DNA in the sample.
		The technology can be used in a variety of applications, from species identification based on bloodstains or meat samples, to estimating the health of a population by determining the amount of inbreeding that might have occurred.
		Forensic DNA profiles are, in terms of their use in identification, similar to fingerprints; as witness the popular use of the term "DNA fingerprint." The ability of forensic-DNA typing to link scene-of-the-crime evidence to a suspect is well established and, as noted, has enabled authorities to obtain convictions in a significant number of cases.

		As the director of a relatively large and comprehensive state forensic laboratory system, I have closely witnessed the burgeoning application of DNA technology to forensic science from its infancy to its present day adolescent stage.
		Furthermore, the DNA technology has been found to be very effective in solving or assisting in the investigation of property crimes as well as violent crime.
		Therefore, the forensic scientist must carefully and laboriously scrutinize every piece of evidence to determine the appropriate type and order of testing so as to provide the most useful information without compromising the integrity of the evidence for other forms of forensic testing.

	SmartWater Technology Forensic DNA Security Systems
		There is undoubtedly a compelling argument for the concept of property marking: one of the common requirements of the criminal justice systems is the need, if convictions are to be secured, for the police to be able to identify the owner of recovered stolen property.
		The technology developed by the royal award-winning scientists at SmartWater represents a revolutionary development over traditional property marking systems and can be described as a ‘forensic coding system’ used to protect the whole spectrum of property, from cars to valuable antiques.
		SmartWater’s forensic technology now offers an alternative approach, allowing a manufacturer to incorporate a unique ‘molecular fingerprint’; within their product that can be used to track and identify the true authenticity of the item.
