Micronised Egyptian blue pigment: A novel near-infrared luminescent fingerprint dusting powder

In this paper we demonstrate that micronised Egyptian blue pigment can be used as a safe and simple material to visualise latent fingerprints on non-porous surfaces as near-infrared luminescent impressions. This allows the detection of latent fingerprints on highly patterned and reflective surfaces...

description In this paper we demonstrate that micronised Egyptian blue pigment can be used as a safe and simple material to visualise latent fingerprints on non-porous surfaces as near-infrared luminescent impressions. This allows the detection of latent fingerprints on highly patterned and reflective surfaces that have proven challenging with existing techniques.
