I spent the five happiest years of my life in a morgue. As a forensic scientist in the Cleveland coroner’s office I analyzed gunshot residue on hands and clothing, hairs, fibers, paint, glass, DNA, blood and many other forms of trace evidence, as well as crime scenes. Now I'm a certified latent print examiner and CSI for a police department in Florida. I also write a series of forensic suspense novels, turning the day job into fiction. My books have been translated into six languages.
I'm not familiar with those terms. Sorry I can't help!

No, just a regular brush, and UV light, as far as anyone here knows, wouldn’t make any difference. The gloves will, however, leave more traces the longer they are worn.
Share Answer: 
I work in a police department, so yes, work with them every day.Though my immediate coworkers and immediate supervisor are all civilians.
Share Answer: 
They didn’t have forensics degrees when I went to school, so learned all the forensic tasks were on the job or continuing education courses. But the science background helps with understanding lab procedures, preparing reagents, and of course explaining what’s going on during the various processes.

If your special keyboard lets you type 200+ words per minute, why doesn't everyone use them?
Because films are entertainment, and stories are more satisfying when they have a definite end.

Yes, absolutely. I can’t think of anything I’d enjoy as much.
