Written by experienced forensic practitioners and researchers, this volume provides detection, analysis, and interpretation protocols that move beyond general overviews to actionable laboratory guidance. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach chapter details the origin and production processes of the materials under examination, presents analytical schemes and workflows, and addresses results interpretation within case contexts. Strategic use of case situations demonstrates practical application.
