Short communications: Exploring temporal fluorescent changes in the composition of human semen stains
Semen traces are considered important pieces of evidence in forensic investigations, especially those involving sexsual offenses. Recently, our research group developed a fluorescence-based technique to accurately determine the age of semen traces. However, the specific compounds resonsible for the fluoresescent behaviour of ageing semens remain unknown. As such, in this exploratory study, the aim is to identify the components associated with the fluorescent behavior of ageing semen traces. In this investigation semen stains and various biofluorophores commonly found in body fluids were left to aged for 0, 2, 4, 7, 14 and 21 days. Subsequently, thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) mass spectrometry were performed to identify the biofluorophores present in semen. Several contributors to the autofluorescence could be identified in semen stain, these include tryptophan, kynurenine, kynurenic acid, and norharman. The study sheds light on the.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Chromatography B publishes papers on developments in separation science relevant to biology and biomedical research including both fundamental advances and applications. Analytical techniques which may be considered include the various facets of chromatography, electrophoresis and related methods, affinity and immunoaffinity-based methodologies, hyphenated and other multi-dimensional techniques, and microanalytical approaches. The journal also considers articles reporting developments in sample preparation, detection techniques including mass spectrometry, and data handling and analysis.
Developments related to preparative separations for the isolation and purification of components of biological systems may be published, including chromatographic and electrophoretic methods, affinity separations, field flow fractionation and other preparative approaches.
Applications to the analysis of biological systems and samples will be considered when the analytical science contains a significant element of novelty, e.g. a new approach to the separation of a compound, novel combination of analytical techniques, or significantly improved analytical performance.
