Understand the purpose of the abstract. An abstract links the main forensic or scientific article with the title of the work. When preparing an abstract, be sure to summarize your work, and justify why the research was necessary.
Explain the objective of the forensic work and the reasoning behind the article. Inform the reader of the materials used during research, as well as the methods and techniques used to gather data.
Provide the reader with a concise statement concerning the results of the research. To make the abstract flow, break down the material in several sections. For example, the introduction can describe the objective, a section on methods can elaborate on the materials and procedures used, the results portion can describe the findings from the research, and the conclusion can describe the importance of the forensic research.
