In firearm forensic investigations, detecting gunshot residue (GSR) is crucial for linking firearms to suspects and determining firing distance for forensic reconstruction. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-ToF-MS) is emerging as a versatile and prom...
