This book provides a line of communication between academia and end
users/practitioners to advance forensic science and boost its
contribution to criminal investigations and court cases. By
covering the state of the art of promising technologies for the
analysis of trace evidence using a controlled vocabulary, this book
targets the forensics community as well as, crucially, informing
the end users on novel and potential forensic opportunities for the
fight against crime. By reporting end users commentaries at the end
of each chapter, the relevant academic community is provided with
clear indications on where to direct further technological
developments in order to meet the law requirements for operational
deployment, as well as the specific needs of the end users.
Promising chemistry based technologies and analytical techniques as
well as techniques that have already shown to various degrees an
operational character are covered. The majority of the techniques
covered have imaging capabilities, that is the ability to visualize
the distribution of the target molecules within the trace evidence
recovered. This feature enhances intelligibility of the information
making it also accessible to a lay audience such as that typically
found with a court jury. Trace evidence discussed in this book
include fingermarks, bodily fluids, hair, gunshot residues, soil,
ink and questioned documents thus covering a wide range of possible
evidence recovered at crime scenes.
