    摘要: A method for recovering evidence from the footwear of a crime scene investigator is provided, comprising placing an adhesive evidence recovery sheet at an entryway to a crime scene, causing the crime scene investigator to step thereon upon exiting the crime scene, and covering the evidence recovery sheet with a protective cover. In this manner, evidence inadvertently adhering to the footwear of the investigator is removed and preserved for further analysis. In accordance with the method of this invention, a device for recovering evidence from the footwear of an investigator is provided, comprising an adhesive evidence recovery sheet and a protective cover. Adhesive strips on an obverse surface of the evidence recovery sheet prevent inadvertent dislodgement of the sheet from the floor surface on which it is placed.

    摘要: A process to determine aerosol particles in gaseous samples, specifically in the exhaust of diesel motors, includes the at least indirect deposit of aerosol particles on a piezoelectric oscillating crystal and the determination of the oscillation parameters of the piezoelectrically stimulated oscillation of the crystal. In order to assure the required reproducibility reliably and independently of the type of aerosol particles, and thus to achieve a high quality of measurements, the piezoelectric crystal is charged to oscillation during less than half the period of deposit of aerosol particles.

    摘要: A method of microdissection which involves: forming an image field of cells of the tissue sample utilizing a microscope, identifying at least one zone of cells of interest from the image field of cells which at least one zone of cells of interest includes different types of cells than adjacent zones of cells, and extracting the at least one zone of cells of interest from the tissue sample. The extraction is achieved by contacting the tissue sample with a transfer surface that can be selectively activated so that regions thereof adhere to the zone of cells of interest to be extracted. The transfer surface includes an activatable adhesive layer which provides chemical or electrostatic adherence to the selected regions of the tissue sample. After the transfer surface is activated the transfer surface and tissue sample are separated. During separation the zone of cells of interest remains adhered to the transfer surface and is thus separated from the tissue sample.

A laser capture microdissection method includes: providing a sample that is to undergo laser capture microdissection; positioning the sample within an optical axis of a laser capture microdissection instrument; providing a transfer film carrier removably positioned in a transfer film carrier handling subsystem, the transfer film carrier having a substrate surface and a laser capture microdissection transfer film coupled to the substrate surface; and then placing the laser capture microdissection transfer film in juxtaposition with the sample by moving the transfer film carrier handling subsystem, the laser capture microdissection transfer film being placed in juxtaposition with a pressure sufficient to allow laser capture microdissection transfer of a portion of the sample to the laser capture microdissection transfer film, without forcing nonspecific transfer of a remainder of the sample to the laser capture microdisection film; and then transferring a portion of the sample to the laser capture microdissection transfer film, without forcing nonspecific transfer of a remainder of the sample to the laser capture microdissection transfer film. Transferring includes moving the laser capture microdissection transfer film and the portion of the sample away from the remainder of the sample with the transfer film carrier handling subsystem. The transfer film carrier handling subsystem can be mounted on an inverted microscope. The systems and methods provide the advantages of increased speed and much lower rates of contamination

    摘要: A process of microdissection where a tissue sample is conventionally visualized in a microscope. A selectively activatable convex surface is provided, preferably on the periphery at the distal end of a rod. This selectively activatable convex surface when locally activated, typically with a laser through an optic light path in the microscope, provides the activated region with adhesive properties. The tissue sample has at least one portion, which is to be extracted is identified. This identified portion is contacted with a portion of the selectively activatable convex surface on the periphery of the rod. When the convex surface is locally activated, typically by exposure to laser light in the footprint of the desired portion, an adhesive transfer surface on the selectively activatable convex surface is activated which adheres to the desired cells in the footprint of the desired portion. Thereafter, the adhesive transfer surface is separated from the remainder of the tissue sample while maintaining adhesion with the portion of the sample. Thus the desired portion of the tissue sample is extracted. The disclosed selectively activatable convex surface is preferably utilized to collect desired tissue samples at more than one location on the same slide or from different slides. A rod having a convex surface with the selectively activatable material is set forth as a staple for use with the apparatus and process. Preferred shapes for the convex surface are disclosed as well as a method for coating rods.
