“…A meaningful step towards this goal could be the wider adoption of experimental designs and general guidelines published by the International Fingerprint Research Group [93]. In accordance with these guidelines, it would appear that the majority of published articles present investigations that could hardly be billed as phase 1 pilot studies, given that phase 2 refers to optimisation and comparison, phase 3 to validation and phase 4 to operational evaluation and casework trials [94].…”

Owing to their superior fluorescence performance, inexpensive synthesis and nontoxic nature, carbon dots (C-dots) are systematically explored in a variety of applications; in this review, we outline and critically discuss recent trends with respect to their potential exploitation in criminal investigation, forensic toxicology and anti-counterfeit interventions. Capitalising on their colour-tuneable behaviour (in the sense that they adopt different colours with respect to the incident radiation), C-dot-based compositions are ideal for the visual enhancement of latent fingerprints, affording improved contrast against multicoloured and patterned backgrounds. As highly sensitive and highly selective optical nanoprobes, C-dots show excellent analytical performance in detecting biological compounds, drugs, explosives, heavy metals and poisonous reactants. In addition, benefiting from their versatile structural and chemical composition, C-dots can be incorporated into ink and polymeric formulations capable of functioning as a new generation of cost-effective barcodes and security nanotags for object authentication and anti-counterfeit applications. Translating these encouraging research outcomes into real-life innovations with significant social and economic impact requires an open, multidisciplinary approach and a close synergy between materials scientists, biologists, forensic investigators and digital engineers.

“…These works seek to propose methodologies to enable the detection and extraction of this trace on surfaces where traditional methods are not sufficient, such as in dark backgrounds and ammunition cartridges. They also seek to obtain other information from these evidences that can contribute to the investigation process, such as the detection of traces of explosives, chemical substances and biological materials 2 .…”

“…In a recent article, Interpol brings a review of the works published in journals with peer reviews worldwide, in the period 2016 to 2019, on fingerprints and other brands produced by the body. According to the authors, there was a 33% increase in the number of publications when compared to the period from 2013 to 2016 2 . This work aims to analyze the evolution of researches related to fingermarks in Brazil for the last ten years, and to evaluate the state of the art as well as the perspectives for this subject at the country.…”

Neste trabalho são relatados os últimos 10 anos de produção científica brasileira sobre análise de impressões digitais. Assim, por meio da ferramenta de busca da plataforma web of science, foram trazidos de suas bases de dados os trabalhos com pelo menos um autor com afiliação do Brasil. As seguintes palavras-chave foram utilizadas na busca por assunto: papiloscopia, ridgeology, fingermark ou latent fingerprint. Os artigos foram separados por áreas e analisou-se a evolução das pesquisas relacionadas à análise de impressões digitais no Brasil, conforme as perspectivas para o tema no país. Assim, a evolução das publicações mundiais também foi comparada com as publicações brasileiras, considerando evolução, tipo, financiamento e questões de pesquisa.

“…They can be used for DNA-profiling for verifying the suspect's identity or for pattern analysis in order to reconstruct the crime. However, until now, using bloodstains to determine the time elapsed since the crime was committed is still not possible [22]. Blood is a special type of print-forming material.…”

Dactyloscopy is the branch of forensics that deals with identifying individuals by analyzing the configurations of the friction ridges on the fingertips. The persistence and degradation of fingerprints depends on such factors as the individual's sex and BMI (body mass index) and the duration and conditions of their preservation. There is a great deal of information on how the passage of time affects the image of fingerprints composed of sebum and sweat, but little knowledge concerning the preservation of bloody fingerprints. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of sex, the state of the blood forming the print (dry vs. fresh), environmental factors (room vs. outdoor conditions), and time on the width of friction ridge impressions in fingerprints. Fingerprints made with fresh blood were found to persist longest, while prints left by women and exposed to outdoor conditions degraded most rapidly. The ambient temperature also had a significant effect on the width of friction ridge impressions and their degradation.
