Fibrous materials in forensic examination

Examination of fabrics, threads, fibres, clothing, upholstery and microparticles of a fibrous nature.

What is taken into account during review

Materials are assessed with regard to the place of discovery, condition of the object, packaging, sample provenance and possibility of particle transfer. Similarity in individual features does not automatically mean a common source or established contact. The limits of comparison and findings are determined by the data as a whole and the methods used.
