GC–MS was selected for robustness and non-targeted capability in high-concentration seized materials, supporting rapid recognition of unexpected compounds without ultra-high-sensitivity platforms.

But there is one piece of that puzzle that's always been tricky: estimating how much time has passed since death, known as ...

LECO Corporation explains which forensic applications benefit from GC×GC’s greater peak capacity, and when the additional separation power may only provide limited benefits.

Kirstine Nielsen of Aarhus University (Denmark) discusses how targeted metabolomics ratios helped build a robust bloodstain time-since-deposition tool. When blood is left behind at the scene of a ...
