EPILOGUE

Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis techniques are reality today, not science fiction. This sophisticated analytical technology is utilized in forensic laboratories around the world and better known as a “CSI” laboratory process. First, gas chromatography separates and isolates individual compounds in complex chemical mixtures. Then analysis of the found mixtures by a mass spectrometer is capable of nearly single molecule identification and characterizations.

    In The Nadjik Pheromone, Michael Hemp presents a fictional, robotic system—a computer guided gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (CG-MS) instrument able to detect specific, universal biological molecular markers for the human act of lying. While monitoring breath and specialized skin pore concentrations for deception compounds, this new GC-MS lie detector technology literally “smells the truth” in gaseous chemical pheromone-like human effusion.
    Far from fictional, today, the application of GC-MS analysis technology is utilized by every forensic laboratory around the world and has developed to a point that highly dilute, complex chemical ultratrace mixtures can be identified and characterized routinely. Today, computer guided GC-MS instruments at airport security stations are typically autonomous, able to detect ultratrace amounts of drugs, explosives, and other dangerous substances evaporating off clothing and baggage. Electronic miniaturization also allows modern GC-MS instruments to be taken out of the laboratory and directly into the field for various forensic investigations.
    What is new in the premise of The Nadjik Pheromone is the search for the specific bio-chemical fingerprints for the human act of lying. The futuristic “Nadjik Pheromone” lie detector technology of breath and pore analysis technology may soon be a reality for all of us.
