Forensic Applications of Mass Spectrometry combines the most current developments in applications of mass spectrometry techniques to forensic analyses. The techniques discussed include:capillary-GC/MS thermospray-LC/MS tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) pyrolysis-GC/MS isotope ratio mass spectrometryThe applications include: analysis of body fluids and hair for drugs of abuse drug testing in sports analysis of accelerants in fire debris detection of hidden explosives in luggage and mail identification of explosives in post-explosion debris examination of evidential materials (paints, fibers, synthetic polymers) authentication of regulated products (flavoring substances, fruit juices) protection of industrial products by isotopic signature
