It’s particularly common in forensic science, biological studies, and environmental monitoring–but uptake in a broader range of applications is growing. ...
Forensic scientists working with drug enforcement agencies all over the world are faced with the same questions - What is this drug? How pure is it? How was it made? These scientists are presented with a wide range of drug samples, from products or precursors seized at border control to clandestine lab busts, and require a quick and reliable solution that will give specific identification and can ...
Analysis of umbilical cord samples offers forensic toxicologists a method for evaluating maternal drug intake patterns. ...
In recent years, Raman spectroscopy has been studied extensively for forensic fiber analysis because of the high selectivity of Raman signatures, non-destruction nature of the test, and the ability to conduct the analysis without any sample preparation. The Raman test can be performed directly on fabrics or fibers mounted on glass slide with very little ...

Much effort has been devoted towards developing efficient DNA sensors for applications in medical diagnostics, food contamination, forensics, biodefence and environmental monitoring. In this study we further evaluate the selectivity of our recently developed switch–off sensor design that utilises sandwich hybridisation between a photoluminescent anionic ...
Reasons for including failure case studies within the undergraduate engineering curriculum have been made by various authors, which has led to the inclusion of structural failure cases into some analysis and design courses. ...
Mean concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), saturated hydrocarbons (SHC), and sterane and triterpane petroleum biomarkers (StTr) were not significantly different in amphipods near the Northstar oil production facility, before and after it came on line in 2001, and in amphipods from elsewhere in the study area. Forensic analysis of the profiles ...
This note introduces forensic complexity as a multidisciplinary approach to the study of comprehension in complex situations in order to enable justifiable action. ...
