商品描述
During the last decade, a significant number of scientific studies have supported the use of human scent as a biometric tool and indicator of the presence, or absence, of an individual at a crime scene. These findings even extend to conducting scent identification line-ups with suspects. Human Scent Evidence focuses on some of these recent advances in the use of human scent as forensic evidence and as an identifier. Topics include:
- Various theories of human odor production
- The variability, stability, and persistence of human scent
- Historical aspects of the use of human scent in police work in the United States and internationally
- Current trends in scent collection techniques, including devices, materials, and storage protocols
- Chemical aspects of the evaluation of human scent, including instrumental methods for odor detection and analysis
- The legal significance of human scent evidence results
- Canine scent work from multiple search categories as described in the Scientific Working Group on Dog and Orthogonal detector Guidelines (SWGDOG)
Human scent evidence may be of critical use in many cases where other types of evidence such as DNA, fingerprints, or fibers are not readily available. As such, it can be a valuable tool in forensic investigations. With examples from North and South America and Europe, this book draws upon an extensive literature review of past and current research and is enhanced with findings from the authors' own research. It concludes with a glimpse of the future direction of human scent evidence in the forensic field and its application as a biometric and diagnostic tool.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
在過去十年中,許多科學研究支持使用人類氣味作為生物識別工具,以及在犯罪現場判斷個體存在或缺席的指標。這些研究結果甚至擴展到與嫌疑人進行氣味識別排隊的實踐。《人類氣味證據》專注於這些最近在使用人類氣味作為法醫證據和識別工具方面的進展。主題包括:
- 人類氣味產生的各種理論
- 人類氣味的變異性、穩定性和持久性
- 在美國及國際上使用人類氣味進行警務工作的歷史背景
- 當前氣味收集技術的趨勢,包括設備、材料和儲存協議
- 評估人類氣味的化學方面,包括氣味檢測和分析的儀器方法
- 人類氣味證據結果的法律意義
- 根據科學工作組犬類和正交檢測器指導方針(SWGDOG)描述的多種搜索類別的犬類氣味工作
人類氣味證據在許多情況下可能至關重要,尤其是在其他類型的證據如DNA、指紋或纖維不易獲得的情況下。因此,它可以成為法醫調查中的一個有價值的工具。本書以北美和南美及歐洲的例子為基礎,依據過去和當前研究的廣泛文獻回顧,並增強了作者自身研究的發現。最後,書中展望了人類氣味證據在法醫領域的未來方向及其作為生物識別和診斷工具的應用。
作者簡介
Paola A. Prada, Ph.D., is an intelligence community postdoctoral research fellow. Her studies encompass interdisciplinary areas such as chemistry, animal behavior, and national security to address issues that are critical to effective intelligence and defense capabilities. She has worked extensively on developing instrumental methods for human odor identification for criminal investigations. Dr. Prada has also worked with canine scent detection in the context of optimizing odor collection techniques for scent training.
Kenneth G. Furton, Ph.D., is a professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry and Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at Florida International University. His research has focused on the canine and instrumental detection of accelerants, biotoxins, currency, drugs, explosives, and humans (dead and alive). Dr. Furton's expertise in forensic science has been sought by the legal system for which he has testified dozens of times as an expert witness in state and federal courts.
