Analysis Gunshot Residue (GSR) – Reconstruction of Crime Scenes
Abstract:GSR particles from the surroundings of bullet hole have been characterized as a function of primer type and particle distribution. SEM images were used to verify size and shape of the GSR particles and EDS to verify the elemental composition in a single particle. The same specimens are further subjected toTime of Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (ToF SIMS) with a view to identify the respective surface chemistry, molecular nature and molecular mass of the GSR particles. Both inorganic and organic compone… Show more
