X-Ray Fluorescence Analysis: Useful For Forensic Examination by Mukesh Sharma in JFSCI - Juiper Publishers
analytical examinations should be needed on the samples, while those samples should be examined rapidly on the basis of the human rights of the concerned suspects or victims. Those evidential samples have been observed and have been examined by many forensic experts [1]. Such samples have thus needed to be analyzed for elemental composition, in turn leads to the investigating agency to know the type and origin of the clue material to reach the criminal or victim. X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) spectroscopy is a non-destructive technique of analysis widely used in forensic science for the identification of elements in pigments, metal alloys, and other materials of evidential clues recovered from the scenes of crime [2,3].
In this paper, we have reported the application of XRF to examine the evidences like purity of gold and silver jewelry (Indian Ornaments) and remnants of glass pieces recovered from crime scenes. In this study, we have also intended to explore the advantages of the XRF method [4], the capabilities of simultaneous multi-element non-destructive, analysis and automatic handling of a large number of samples. XRF spectrometry is widely used technique for the analysis of metals, alloys, composite (glass) and polymers (paint-chip). This paper reports the quantitative and qualitative elemental analysis of silver brick and glass fragments using the WD XRF spectrometer and the FP method.
