Visualisation Of Latent Fingerprint On Different Surfaces By Using Cement And Beetroot Powder

Abstract

Earlier, Numerous Methods For The Synthesis Of Latent Fingerprints On Numerous Surfaces Were Documented. This Research Describes A Simple And Non-toxic. The Powder Dusting Approach Is The Most Practical Approach To Develop Latent Fingerprints At A Crime Scene. Latent Fingerprint Is Prone To Damage And Destruction Because Of Their Fragile Nature. There Are So Many Powders Present In The Market For Lifting A Fingerprint Which Are Toxic And Expensive. Such Chemical Methods Are Not Impermeable And Permanent On Surface. Replacing Old Methods, We Have Formulated A New Powder With The Help Of Cement And Beetroot Which Is Non- Toxic And Easily Available. This Novel Formulation Is Efficient To Make Latent Fingerprint Permanent And Water Resistant On Different Surface Which Benefits At Outdoor Crime. We Have Tested This On Surfaces Like Wall, Aluminium, Wood, Plastic, Foil-paper, Leather, Glass, Paper Etc.
