In acquiring the Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) recently, the Guyana Forensic Science Laboratory is now said to be leading forensic testing in the Caribbean region, with Guyana being the first country to acquire the high-tech, German-branded equipment. The lab, at Turkeyen, Greater Georgetown, will offer enhanced forensic capabilities enabled by this advanced piece of equipment, and authorities are especially looking forward to using it to help reduce the backlog in gunshot residue cases.
