DNA Contamination

entitled "Could Secondary DNA Transfer Falsely Place Someone at the Scene of a Crime?" University of Indianapolis researchers performed experiments to test the sensitivity of Touch DNA transfers. Person A held a handshake with Person B for two minutes, then handled a knife. The DNA profile of the Person B, who never touched the weapon, was identified on the swab of the weapon handle in 85 percent of the samples. In one-fifth of those experiments, the person who had never directly touched the knife was identified as the main or only contributor of the DNA on the handle, according to the study.
