Mass spectrometry-based proteomics as a tool to identify biological matrices in forensic science [PDF]
International Journal of Legal Medicine, 2012 In forensic casework analysis, identification of the biological matrix and the species of a forensic trace, preferably without loss of DNA, is of major importance. The biological matrices that can be encountered in a forensic context are blood (human or non-human), saliva, semen, vaginal fluid, and to a lesser extent nasal secretions, feces, and urine.

Designing online species identification tools for biological recording: the impact on data quality and citizen science learning [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 In recent years, the number and scale of environmental citizen science programmes that involve lay people in scientific research have increased rapidly. Many of these initiatives are concerned with the recording and identification of species, processes which are increasingly mediated through digital interfaces.

Citizen Science as a Tool to Get Baseline Ecological and Biological Data on Sharks and Rays in a Data-Poor Region [PDF]
Sustainability, 2022 The Mexican Caribbean is in one of the regions with the greatest diversity of elasmobranchs in the world. However, the population status of most of the shark and ray species in this region is unknown. We used a citizen science program based on divers to collect data about the diversity, abundance, and distribution of elasmobranchs in this region.

MicroorganismsThe type III secretion system (T3SS) is a nano-machine that allows Gram-negative bacteria to alter eukaryotic host biology by directly delivering effector proteins from the bacterial cytoplasm. Protein delivery based on the bacterial T3SS has been widely used in research in biology. This review explores recent advancements in the structure and function

Use of a citizen science tool for the determination of biological invasions in urban areas [PDF]
, 2022 AbstractUrban environments are critical points for biological invasions because these areas are susceptible to a greater number of environmental disturbances. Because they are densely populated ecosystems, urban environments present a unique opportunity for the involvement of society in the management of invasive exotic species.
