In the lab, forensic biologists examine this evidence using microscopes and other technology. They photograph and catalog the evidence and perform DNA and other tests on the samples.

And the most commonly used instruments in forensic assessment are the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 (MMPI-2) for personality assessment and the Wechsler scales for intellectual measurement.

A trace evidence collection kit might include:

• Acetate sheet protectors.
• Bindle paper.
• Clear tape/adhesive lift.
• Electrostatic dust lifter.
• Flashlight (oblique lighting).
• Forceps/tweezers.
• Glass vials.
• Slides and slide mailers.

Analysing evidence Evidence at a crime scene may only be found in small, trace amounts so forensic scientists use a variety of techniques including microscopic analysis, mass spectrometry, chromatography and DNA analysis.

What is one of the most important tools of the forensic investigator? To observe, interpret and report observations clearly. Where do detectives look for leads in an investigation? They interview witnesses and talk to the crime scene investigators about the evidence.

Leung says that most of Googlers are given MacBooks and Ubuntu laptops for running local applications but Chromebook is the most used laptop at Google.

Google’s preferred desktop OS for its employees is Mac, and not Windows, Linux or even its own Chrome OS. This surprising revelation came at the LISA 2013 conference held earlier this month, where Google revealed that the company is managing over 43,000 Macs that its employees use, without any help from Apple.

Chrome Drains Your MacBook Battery If you’ve got Chrome running, Chrome will often show up here. Because of this, if battery life is important to you, avoid using Chrome on your MacBook. Google is reportedly working on the issue, and has made progress, but the job is far from finished.

Safest browser for Mac – Mozilla Firefox While Mac users might feel inclined to use Safari, which is not a bad option by any means, Firefox offers much more privacy and add-ons. However, if you don’t care that much about data collection even when you’re in private mode, Safari can still be a great choice.

Free web browser for Mac. First released for Windows in 2008, Google Chrome officially launched on the Mac computers in 2010 after several months of beta testing. It offers fast and secure web browsing via a search engine, giving you access to internet articles and pages.

If you’re coming from an iPhone, you’re probably used to Safari, while Android users are probably more comfortable in Chrome. You’ll have to consider which tab setup is easier for your own use, but it’s not hard to adjust between the two.

Google’s Chrome browser is a privacy nightmare in itself, because all you activity within the browser can then be linked to your Google account. If Google controls your browser, your search engine, and has tracking scripts on the sites you visit, they hold the power to track you from multiple angles.

Secure Browsers

• Firefox. Firefox is a robust browser when it comes to both privacy and security.
• Google Chrome. Google Chrome is a very intuitive internet browser.
• Chromium. Google Chromium is the open-source version of Google Chrome for people who want more control over their browser.
• Brave.
• Tor.
