Recent forensic applications of enhanced chromatographic separation methods

Genetta M Young et al. J Sep Sci. 2022 Jan.

Abstract

This study reviews the recent applications of enhanced separation methods employed in forensic analysis utilizing gas chromatography, liquid chromatography, and supercritical fluid chromatography published between 2015 to 2020, except papers previously covered in relevant review articles. Applications of enhanced chromatographic separation methods to arson investigations, environmental forensics, sexual assault investigations, drug analysis, and toxicology are discussed. Future directions for enhanced chromatographic separation methods in forensic science are also explored.

Keywords: forensics; gas chromatography; liquid chromatography; multi-dimensional chromatography; supercritical fluid chromatography.
