Analytical separations of mammalian decomposition products for forensic science: a review.

Principles, Practice, and Evolution of Capillary Electrophoresis as a Tool for Forensic DNA Analysis.

Capillary electrophoresis (CE) is a versatile and widely used analysis platform with application in diverse areas such as analytical chemistry, chiral separations, clinical, forensics, molecular biology, natural products, organic chemistry, and the pharmaceutical industry. Forensic applications of CE include fragment analysis, DNA sequencing, SNP typing, and analysis of gunshot residues, explos...

Enhanced Characterization of the Smell of Death by Comprehensive Two-Dimensional Gas Chromatography-Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry (GCxGC-TOFMS)

Soon after death, the decay process of mammalian soft tissues begins and leads to the release of cadaveric volatile compounds in the surrounding environment. The study of postmortem decomposition products is an emerging field of study in forensic science. However, a better knowledge of the smell of death and its volatile constituents may have many applications in forensic sciences. Domestic pig...

A Review of Membrane Technology for Integrated Forest Biorefinery

More recently, the concept of integrated forest biorefinery (IFBR) has received much attention as a promising solution for the struggling forest industry in North America and Europe to overcome its difficult financial period and competes globally. This new business paradigm offers a broad range of potentially attractive products, from bioenergy to value-added green organic chemicals in addition...

Forensic Investigation of Soil and Vegetable Materials.

In forensic science, soil, dust, and vegetable traces have as high a value as evidence as classical traces such as fingerprints or toolmarks. It is imperative that the potential information in these traces can be identified by a combination of analytical methods selected by a qualified expert. Experience has shown that the best results can be expected when all of the aspects of evidence, includ...
