The process is a very long and tedious exercise that involves meticulous documentation of the crime scene leading to collection and recovery of evidence in order to deduce the events of a crime. Doing this, requires the application of some scientific or forensic tools which enables the prosecution to produce credible evidence with which to get justice for the victim. \u0000Objectives; This study was therefore conducted to investigate the application of forensic tools in crime scene investigation in Nigerian using Benin City as a case study. \u0000Method; In the study, investigators of the various investigative units in Edo State Criminal Investigations Department in Benin City within the three local government areas that make up Benin metropolis was the study population. Data was collected using a semi-structured questionnaire and key informant interview from senior serving and retired police officers. 110 respondents were initially drawn as the sample for the study, however, only 98 results were received and were used for the final sample. Using an interview schedule and statistical analysis technique, the data were critically analyzed. \u0000Results; Results from the study showed non usage of any form of forensic evidence in the various investigations carried out by the Police. Challenges, such as poor training, inadequate funding and interference from diverse quarters contribute to limit the effective use of forensic investigation in the conduct of criminal investigations. \u0000Conclusion; The Police being the chief execution arm of government and by implication other law enforcement agencies, the legal community and the Nigerian public are yet to fully grasp the nucleus or important roles of forensics science in crime investigation. On this premise, it was recommended that specialized forensic units be established for criminal investigations which should be adequately funded.","PeriodicalId":9662,"journal":{"name":"Caucasian Journal of Science","volume":"2003 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86235475","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, MUC1 and MUC16 expressions in uterine tissues of Kangal or Kangal cross-bred bitchs in proestrus, metoestrus-dioestrus and anoestrus sexual periods were investigated by immunohistochemical method. Uterine tissues of 15 healthy and adopted Kangal or Kangal cross-bred bitches aged 3-6 years were used in the study. The biches were divided into 3 groups according to sexual cycle periods as proestrus (n=5), metaestrus-dioestrus (n=3) and anaestrus (n=7). As a result, MUC1 was found to be expressed in both cornu and corpus uteri epithelial cells, crypt epithelial cells, uterine gland cells, stratum vascularis, myometrium and perimetrium layers in canine uterus. When oestrus cycles were compared, it was found that expression increased more in the metoestrus-dioestrus phase compared to other phases. Expression of MUC16 was observed in the cornu uteri during the metoestrus-dioestrus phase. In this study, MUC1 and MUC16 were determined to be expressed in the uterine tissue of bitches and their release was found to be affected by hormones.","PeriodicalId":9662,"journal":{"name":"Caucasian Journal of Science","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82900452","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Litter size is an important reproductive trait associated with estrogen synthesis. Therefore, it is critical to investigate the relationship between the RORA gene and sheep litter size. In this study, a 23 base pair nucleotide sequence mutation in a gene called RORA and the effect of this mutation on the productivity of sheep offspring were investigated. In this study, a 23 bp nucleotide sequence mutation was found in intron 1 of the RORA gene in 35 female Bafra ewes. Ten ml of milk was collected from each of the 35 samples. The litter size of the DD genotype was significantly higher than the ID genotype and the II genotype in the second born litter size (p> 0.05). The relationship between combined genotypes and average litter size showed that ewes with homozygous (DD) genotype had larger lambs than ewes with heterozygous (ID) genotype. Multiple pregnancy rates in the first and second litters were higher than the average stillbirth rate (p> 0.05). To summarize, this study provided theoretical references for further research on the function of RORA gene and breeding of Bafra sheep. The 23-bp indel variants can be used as molecular markers for the size of first and second born offspring of ewes in MAS (marker assisted selection) breeding.","PeriodicalId":9662,"journal":{"name":"Caucasian Journal of Science","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74524777","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
