Recommendation:
System for managing and collection of
data should be established including
collection of samples, analytical
information and annotation.
A searchable collection of physical
objects and information is valuable for
retrospective review.

Recommendation:
• Methods using impurity profiling and isotopic ratio distribution
for purposes related to determining responsibility for use of
chemical weapons, for abandoned chemical weapons, or for
clandestine chemical weapons production are valuable to
develop
• solvents, trace metals and inorganic elements

Linking of molecular structure-to-isotopic composition
increases the diagnostic value of commonly occurring
preserved biomarkers, such as lipids and proteins, allowing
exploitation of previously inaccessible information relating
to metabolism, digestive physiology, environment, climate
and absolute age, thereby enhancing provenance
assignments.

A Workshop or a temporary working group
could be considered to develop forensic methods
and capabilities for CWC verification
Appropriate functions within the OPCW could
benefit from cooperative working relationships
with organisations and networks of experts
relevant to forensics.
Establishing a system for the management of data
is essential for use in a forensic capacity.

A searchable collection of physical objects and
information is valuable for retrospective review
For example, existing compiled data on abandoned
chemical weapons and impurity profiles for known
synthetic routes to nerve and vesicant agents could
serve as a resource to those working in the field of
chemical weapons related investigations

Methods using impurity profiling and isotopic
ratio distribution for purposes related to
determining responsibility for use of chemical
weapons, for abandoned chemical weapons, or for

Autonomous systems to support investigations of
alleged use of chemical weapons could benefit
investigators
Forensic training will continue to be valuable for
enhancing forensic awareness and forensic
investigation capabilities
