Forensics fingerprinting material testing. Researcher holding a fingerprint impression mould taken from one of the thumbs of a dead body (cadaver). This work is being done as part of research into new materials being used for fingerprint impression moulds. This new silicone-based elastomer material is designed to dry on contact with air when a setting agent is added prior to use. In this research,this new material was shown to set faster and produce clearer fingerprint detail than a comparison material being used (see C001/067 and C001/3071). Cadavers may need to be fingerprinted for identification purposes. Photographed in 2007,at Cardiff University,Wales | |
