News
Attention GSR Customers! Forensic Services new Scanning Electron Microscope installed!
Great news to our Gun Shot Residue (GSR) customers! We have received our new Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). It has been installed and is working as expected. Unfortunately, the new instrument requires an accessory that can’t be installed by the vendor due to travel restrictions in place because of COVID-19. Once the travel ban is lifted and the accessory is installed, we will validate and verify the new instrument functions properly and resume GSR casework. Please, check back here for updates.
