BACKGROUND
Securing the evidence in various investigative situations is often associated with trace analysis, including fingerprints or blood groups. However, when classic and conventional methods fail, trace elements, such as copper, zinc, fluorine, and many others found in exceedingly insignificant amounts in organisms, may prove useful and effective.
METHODS
The presented work reviews articles published between 2003 and 2023, describing the use of trace elements and the analytical methods employed for their analysis in forensic medicine and related sciences.
RESULTS & CONCLUSION: Trace elements can be valuable as traces collected at crime scenes and during corpse examination, aiding in determining characteristics like the sex or age of the deceased. Additionally, trace elements levels in the body can serve as alcohol or drug poisoning markers. In traumatology, trace elements enable the identification of various instruments and the injuries caused by their use.
背景
在各种调查场景中获取证据通常与痕量分析相关，包括指纹或血型分析。然而，当经典和传统方法失效时，生物体中含量极少的微量元素，如铜、锌、氟等，可能会被证明是有用且有效的。
方法
本研究回顾了2003年至2023年间发表的文章，描述了微量元素的用途以及在法医学和相关科学中用于分析它们的分析方法。
结果与结论
微量元素作为在犯罪现场和尸体检查时收集的痕量物质可能很有价值，有助于确定死者的性别或年龄等特征。此外，体内微量元素水平可作为酒精或药物中毒的标志物。在创伤学中，微量元素能够识别各种器械及其使用造成的损伤。
