LCGC Blog: Forensics Laboratories Underassess Uncertainty in Blood Alcohol Determinations
August 8th 2023The level of uncertainty provided by most forensic laboratories for reported blood alcohol results has been woefully underassessed. Not only is this bad science, but someone’s civil liberties may be at stake.
Ink Source Prediction and Assessment Made Possible by Mass Spectrometry
May 22nd 2023Scientists have developed a new method for predicting and assessing the source of black inks using direct analysis in real-time mass spectrometry. By applying dimensionality reduction techniques and likelihood ratio analysis, the researchers achieved high accuracy in identifying ink sources, demonstrating the potential of this approach in forensic ink analysis.
