53. The Use of Gelatin-Based Samples for Verification of Trace Contraband Vapor Detectors
Topic: Forensics
Published: 7/25/2010
Authors: Jessica L Staymates, John G Gillen
Abstract: This work describes a method to produce inexpensive and field deployable samples that can be used to verify the working condition of trace contraband vapor detectors such as ion mobility spectrometers (IMS). With such instruments, including chemical ...

56. Weathering Patterns of Ignitable Liquids with the Advanced Distillation Curve Method
Series: Journal of Research (NIST JRES)
Report Number: 118.003
Topic: Forensics
Published: 1/17/2013
Authors: Samuel Allen, Thomas J Bruno
Abstract: One can take advantage of the striking similarity of ignitable liquid vaporization (or weathering) patterns and the separation observed during distillation to predict the composition of residual compounds in fire debris. This is done with the ad ...

57. Y-SNP Typing of Two U.S. Populations Using Allele-Specific Hybridization and Primer Extension
Topic: Forensics
Published: 3/17/2004
Authors: Peter M Vallone, John M Butler
Abstract: Multiplex analysis of genetic markers has become increasingly important in a number of fields including DNA diagnostics and human identity testing. Two methods for examination of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with a potential for a high degr ...
