In situ identification of TATP and DADP particles collected with transparent tape by Raman spectroscopy and imaging

A new in-situ method to collect trace explosive particles in bombing cases is investigated in this study using transparent tape. Triactone triperoxide and diacetine diperoxide could be identified via laser confocal Raman spectroscopy, using KnowItAll software and the KnowItAll Raman spectral library.
