A Field Kit for Sampling Gunshot Residue Particles
Journal of Forensic Sciences, 1982Abstract 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, 1992Gunshot 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, 2013AbstractThe 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
1993A 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.

Automated Gunshot Residue Particle Search and Characterization
Journal of Forensic Sciences, 1987Abstract The main disadvantage to gunshot residue (GSR) particle analysis utilizing scanning electron microscope/energy dispersive X-ray (SEM/EDX) instrumentation has been the excessive operator time required for search and identification. This study uses an automated particle search and characterization program for unattended GSR search

Advances in Analysis of Gunshot Residue
2019Analysis of gunshot residue (GSR), produced by the discharge of a firearm, can assist in the association of a suspect with a crime and in the reconstruction of the sequence of events preceding the crime. The golden standard in the analysis of GSR is scanning electron microscope equipped with a detector for the X-ray emission (SEM/EDX).
