“…Nowadays, many methods exist as standard methods for the development of the LFPs on common substrates in routine forensic practice (Ezhilmaran and Adhiyaman, 2017 ; Lennard, 2020 ), but there are still some situations that it is difficult or impossible to recover LFPs for forensic investigators. The ongoing research is being directed at improved sensitivity, universality, convenience, and efficiency via the optimization of existing methods or new approaches, such as spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, immuno-labeling, and nanoparticles based approaches (Nakamura et al, 2015 ; Zhao et al, 2016 ; Figueroa et al, 2017 ; O'Neill et al, 2018 ; Kolhatkar et al, 2019 ; Bodelón and Pastoriza-Santos, 2020 ; Li et al, 2020 ).…”
