CRJ 320 WEEK 3 Discussion
forensic drug analyst Rose Thomas receives a potential drug sample for analysis. The appearance of the powder suggests that it is adulterated and may contain more than one substance. Please discuss whether spectrometry would be a good analytical tool in this case? If not, what other technique could be used?
Remember that this is your opportunity to demonstrate your understanding of the course material.  Be sure to tie your thoughts and ideas back to the concepts in the text or lecture notes and relevant peer reviewed sources. Also, remember you will need to submit your initial post and two substantive responses to a peer response or follow-up to have a chance at receiving full credit.  The discussion forums are an important part of the course.  As such, your initial post needs to be a minimum of 200 words.  Also, remember you will need to post two additional substantive responses (100 word minimum) to a peer response or follow-up to have a chance at receiving full credit.  Posting “I agree” with a simple restatement is not considered substantive.  Citations and references are required for you to have a chance for full credit.  Your grade will depend not only on your incorporation of these elements but also the demonstration of critical thinking skills and logical analysis.
