Imaging mass spectrometry of fingermarks on brass bullet casings using sample rotation (2021)
Journal Article
Lee, C. J., Scurr, D. J., Jiang, L., Kenton, A., Beebe, S. R. T., & Sharp, J. S. (2021). Imaging mass spectrometry of fingermarks on brass bullet casings using sample rotation. Analyst, 146(24), 7563-7572. https://doi.org/10.1039/d1an01768c

A rotation stage was developed to allow the surface of bullet casings to be imaged under ultra-high vacuum (UHV) conditions using time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS). Experiments were performed over a period of seven months to d... Read More about Imaging mass spectrometry of fingermarks on brass bullet casings using sample rotation.

Combined total internal reflection AF spectral-imaging and Raman spectroscopy for fast assessment of surgical margins during breast cancer surgery (2021)
Journal Article
Lizio, M. G., Liao, Z., Shipp, D. W., Boitor, R., Mihai, R., Sharp, J. S., …Notingher, I. (2021). Combined total internal reflection AF spectral-imaging and Raman spectroscopy for fast assessment of surgical margins during breast cancer surgery. Biomedical Optics Express, 12(2), 940-954. https://doi.org/10.1364/boe.411648

The standard treatment for breast cancer is surgical removal mainly through breast conserving surgey (BCS). We developed a new technique based on auto-fluorescence (AF) spectral imaging and Raman spectroscopy for fast intraoperative assessment of exc...
