For the production of a forensic chemistry laboratory manual, a real-world scenario was created by capstone forensic chemistry students.

Abstract The study of metalloporphyrins has revealed enhanced reduction capabilities in porphyrins metallated with late first row transition metals, which in turn promises great potential as catalysts for different reduction reactions. These reactions include carbon dioxide reduction, oxygen reduction reactions, and hydrogen evolution reactions. Tetraphenylporphyrin was used in this experiment to determine if it could be metallated with zinc acetate and form metallo-meso-tetraphenylporphyrin.

Abstract A silica sol–gel colorimetric sensor was successfully developed for the detection of methamphetamine. Simon’s reagents were entrapped within the polymeric network of the silica sol–gel matrix. The sol–gel colorimetric sensor was synthesized to demonstrate the qualitative analysis of methamphetamine with digital image colorimetry using a Red-Green-Blue (RGB) basic color program.
