A CSI lab tech has just completed as series of Kastle-Meyer tests on 3 red stains on a suspect's shirt and compared them to her positive and negative controls. For sample 1 the pink color appeared after 5 minutes after hydrogen peroxide was added. For sample 2 and 3 the pink appeared immediately after hydrogen peroxide was added. Please answer the following questions:
A) What is the result for each? How do you know?Â
B) Why did the lab tech need to run a positive and negative control? What else would she need to do to ensure that all tests and procedures were being done correctly and the results are reliable?  Â
C) After running the Kastle Meyer test the lab tech ran the 3 sample through gel electrophoresis. Bands appeared for sample 3 but there were no bands for sample 1 and 2. Explain what could have happened in each case.
