Gunshot residue preservation in seawater

Forensic Science International, 2015
Little is known about the persistence of gunshot residue (GSR) in soft tissue and bones during decomposition in marine environments. For a better understanding, qualitative and quantitative data were obtained on GSR retention on soft tissue and bony gunshot wounds (GSWs).

Identification of gunshot residue: a critical review

Forensic Science International, 2001
A review of the scientific papers published on inorganic gunshot residue (GSR) analysis permits to study how the particle analysis has shown its capability in detection and identification of gunshot residue. The scanning electron microscope can be the most powerful tool for forensic scientists to determine the proximity to a discharging firearm and/or ...

Evaluation of morphological and chemical differences of gunshot residues in different ammunitions using SEM/EDS technique

open access: yesEnvironmental Forensics, 2016
In this study, gunshot residues (GSR) of eight different original ammunitions were studied. Gunshot residues collected by the tape-lift method from both of the shooters' hands were analyzed using the SEM/EDS technique.

Examination of Gunshot Residues

Journal of Forensic Sciences, 1974
Abstract The examination of gunshot residues in a forensic science laboratory should be a series of integrated procedures. The Southwestern Institute of Forensic Sciences includes both the Office of the Medical Examiner and the Criminal Investigation Laboratory.

Studies of gunshot residue

Journal of Radioanalytical Chemistry, 1973
The deposits resulting from the discharge of 0.22 calibre ammunition have been studied by neutron activation analysis and autoradiography. Material ejected forward with the bullet, and material ejected between a revolver cylinder and barrel, have been collected, both on filter paper an on a variety of clothing fabrics.

Gunshot residue patterns on skin in angled contact and near contact gunshot wounds

open access: yesForensic Science International, 2003
The goal of this study was the reproduction of shape and pattern of gunshot residues in near contact and contact gunshot wounds by a series of experimental gunshots on a skin and soft tissue model.

Pyrotechnic Residues in Gunshot Residue Analysis

Proceedings, annual meeting, Electron Microscopy Society of America, 1985
Particle analysis by scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive x- ray analysis is one of the current methods used in crime laboratories to aid law enforcement in identifying individuals who have recently fired or handled a firearm. During the discharge of a firearm, the high pressure caused by the detonation of the cartridge materials forces ...

Close Proximity Gunshot Residues

Journal of Forensic Sciences, 1986
Abstract Intuitively, a hand held in close proximity to a firearm at the instant of discharge will intercept a significant amount of gunshot residue, even though the hand did not actually come into contact with the weapon. There is, however, little information specifically described in the forensic science literature concerning the ...
