JEOL SEMs and mass spectrometers are used by forensic investigators in crime labs, forensic science centers, and government agencies. The imaging and analytical ability of these sensitive yet easy-to-use instruments reveal startling physical and chemical evidence that might otherwise be easily overlooked. JEOL SEMs accommodate large samples, so evidence is not destroyed, while the JEOL DART open air mass spectrometer analyzes samples such as writing inks on documents or explosives on clothing without altering the materials in any way.
