Latent Fingerprint Chemical Imaging by Mass Spectrometry

Ifa, Demian R., Manicke, Nicholas E., Dill, Allison L., Cooks, R. Graham·2008·Science

Abstract

Latent fingerprints (LFPs) potentially contain more forensic information than the simple identification of the subject; they may contain evidence of contacts with explosives or substances of abuse. Chemical information can also be useful in resolving overlapping LFPs from different individuals. We used desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry in an imaging mode to record compound-specific chemical fingerprints.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
