 | | |  Forensics at your Fingertips: Moving Towards On-Scene Identification?
Forensic science is based on the idea that every interaction leaves a trace, so every crime leaves some evidence of the perpetrator. As a result, identifying and analyzing both known and unknown substances is a vital part of forensic science. In this way, justice often depends on reliable analytical methods and techniques. The latest advances in analytical chemistry now promise a new era of forensic science.
Join Pittcon in Chicago from the 1st -5th March at McCormick Place for the the latest research, instrumentation, techniques, and collaboration.

| | | | |  Forensic chemist Jan Halámek is proving that our own perspiration not only gives away how drunk we are – but if we are high, too. The lab has captured the ability to detect a person's marijuana-use based on contents in a small skin secretion that can be taken from fingerprints or any other sweat glands. | | | | |  A team from the University of Waterloo have developed a direct and fast means of quantifying drug levels in beverages and bodily fluids. Using a new analytical setup – dielectric barrier discharge (DBD), combined with high-resolution mass spectrometry – the team achieved an enhanced dynamic range of detection and lower limits of quantitation, compared to the prevailing techniques. | | | | |  The new year has brought with it advances to the Society of Toxicology's official journal, Toxicological Sciences, some of which are reflected in the January 2020 issue-;Volume 173, Issue 1. | |
