A Photoluminescence Technique for Detection of Gunshot Residue

Journal of Forensic Sciences, 1975
Abstract When a suspect has been apprehended following a shooting, detection of gunshot residue on his hands may provide significant evidence in the investigation. The determination of the firing distance (distance from weapon to target) by the distribution of gunshot residue around a bullet hole is also useful in various gunshot ...

Gunshot Residue Analysis—A Review

Journal of Forensic Sciences, 1997
Abstract A review of all aspects of analysis associated with gunshot residues is provided. This includes a summary of what both inorganic and organic residues are, how they arise and how they may be collected from a variety of substrates.

Evaluation of a Photoluminescence Technique for the Detection of Gunshot Residue

Journal of Forensic Sciences, 1977
Abstract This is the second paper in a series describing the photoluminescence technique for detection of gunshot residue. It presents results of a substantial number of analyses of samples obtained for a variety of handguns and cartridges and collected under various conditions.

An Interesting Gunshot Residue Pattern

Journal of Forensic Sciences, 1985
Abstract The presence of lead, copper, and antimony (Sb, Cu, and Pb) was shown on the left back and right palm by use of anodic stripping voltammetry (ASV). These data are consistent with a cross overhand held weapon (left over right).

A Field Kit for Sampling Gunshot Residue Particles

Journal of Forensic Sciences, 1982
Abstract The application of scanning electron microscopy to gunshot residue particle detection requires a field sampling kit that can be used dependably by nonscientific field personnel. The kit developed by the authors uses adhesive tape on aluminum stubs to sample the suspect's hands. The kit evolved from prototypes that were subjected

[The "inner gunshot residue"--a gunshot entry marker in gunshot of ridged skin].

Archiv fur Kriminologie, 1992
Gunshot residue below the surface of the skin is typical of a contact gunshot wound. However, in a case of our own, when a taxi-robber was shot by the cab driver through his right hand at a distance of several yards, this finding provoked quite a confusion. Only when experimental shots at thick glabrous skin were performed, it could be established that

Statistical Challenges in the Quantification of Gunshot Residue Evidence

Journal of Forensic Sciences, 2013
AbstractThe discharging of a gun results in the formation of extremely small particles known as gunshot residues (GSR). These may be deposited on the skin and clothing of the shooter, on other persons present, and on nearby items or surfaces. Several factors and their complex interactions affect the number of detectable GSR particles, which can deeply ...

Analysis of Organic Gunshot Residues

1993
A comparison was made of chromatographic parameters for gas and high performance liquid chromatography methods employed in the analysis of organic gun shot residues. A solid phase extraction procedure was adopted to provide sequential analysis of swabs or filters.
