Impact of model choice on LR assessment in case of rare haplotype match (frequentist approach)

open access: yes, 2016
The likelihood ratio (LR) measures the relative weight of forensic data regarding two hypotheses. Several levels of uncertainty arise if frequentist methods are chosen for its assessment: the assumed population model only approximates the true one and ...

Skeletal Muscle Memory: An Update From the Antidoping Perspective

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This narrative review explores the concept of muscle memory, focusing on the physiological and biochemical mechanisms underlying information retention in skeletal muscle tissue as it relates to antidoping. The discussion encompasses the role of satellite cells (SCs) in myonuclei recruitment, resulting in increased myonuclear density and ...

Investigations into the characterization, degradation, and applications of biodegradable polymers by mass spectrometry

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Biodegradable polymers have been getting more and more attention because of their contribution to the plastic pollution environmental issues and to move towards a circular economy. Nevertheless, biodegradable materials still exhibit various disadvantages restraining a widespread use in the market.

Further Investigation Into an Environmental Source for Aminorex

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
The results provide evidence that resedine is an intermediary compound between barbarin and aminorex in horses and that resedine can be used as a biomarker to eliminate the reporting of aminorex positives originating from the ingestion of plants from the Brassicaceae family.

Associations Between Self‐Reported Cocaine Use Patterns and Cocaine and Its Metabolites in Hair: Implications for Clinical and Forensic Practices

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that concentrations of cocaine and its main metabolites in hair reliably predict an individual's actual intensity of cocaine use and effectively differentiate between dependent and non‐dependent users. ABSTRACT In forensic toxicology, it has been debated if hair testing allows an estimation of the intensity of cocaine use—an ...

Biomarker patterns and mechanistic insights into hypothermia from a postmortem metabolomics investigation

open access: yesScientific Reports
Postmortem metabolomics holds promise for identifying crucial biological markers relevant to death investigations and clinical scenarios. We aimed to assess its applicability in diagnosing hypothermia, a condition lacking definitive biomarkers.
