Abstract
FORENSIC science is rarely out of the news these days. Hardly a week seems to pass without reports of a criminal being convicted by DNA evidence extracted from a single hair, a flake of skin or a trace of blood or saliva found at a crime scene. Less well known, however, is the way in which forensic science has benefited from our ability to identify the presence of molecules in a sample using infrared radiation.Keywords
