In this study, the multiple fingerprints, which were integrated with HPGFC-ELSD (high performance gel filtration chromatography - evaporative light scattering detector) fingerprint, PMP-HPLC-DAD (1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone-high performance liquid chromatography - diode array detector) fingerprint of complete acid hydrolysates and HILIC-HPLC-ELSD (hydrophilic interaction - high performance liquid chromatography - evaporative light scattering detector) fingerprint of enzyme hydrolysates, were established to evaluate the quality of polysaccharides from Poria cocos (PCPs). The similarity evaluation showed that 16 batches of PCPs from different origins had high similarity in structural characteristics based on the multiple fingerprints. The chromatographic data of multiple fingerprints of PCPs were fused, processed and analyzed by chemometric methods including HCA (hierarchical cluster analysis), PCA (principal component analysis) and PLS-DA (partial least squares discriminant analysis). The 16 batches of PCPs were divided into 3 categories in PCA, indicating a certain relationship between the structural characteristics and the origins. PLS-DA analysis indicated that Man, Glc, Gal, Fuc, the components with m/z of 2.22 × 10 4 ∼1.53 × 10 4 Da and 3.46 × 10 3 ∼2.69 × 10 3 Da, oligosaccharides with DPs of 6 and 7, respectively, could be regarded as potential chemical markers for the classification of PCPs from different origins. According to the multiple fingerprints and chemometric analysis, the two commercial samples were proved to be adulterants.

Both latent sebaceous and blood fingerprints may provide valuable information for forensic investigation. To detect both types of fingerprints with no need to predistinguish them, a new adaptive developing strategy was proposed. A cationic conjugated polymer with poly[p-(phenylene ethylene)-alt-(thienylene ethynylene)] backbone (PPETE-NMe3+) was synthesized, which was dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) to form the developing solution. Fingerprints were developed by a simple dropping and incubating process without any pre-/post-treatments. Fluorescent photographs of the developed fingerprints on various substrates demonstrated that this developing strategy was effective for both types of fingerprints on nonporous substrates. Gray value analysis further confirmed the enhancement of the legibility of the fingerprint images. The preliminary mechanism exploration suggested that certain weak interactions, such as hydrophobic interaction and electrostatic interaction, may synergistically contribute to the interaction between the polymer and fingerprint components. The molecular design of the polymer combined with an appropriate solvent endowed the developing system the adaptiveness toward different types of fingerprints. This adaptive developing strategy made the fingerprint-developing process more efficient and may be further extended to more practical application scenes.

In forensic science, the demand for the discovery and extraction of latent fingermarks at crime scenes in a fast and convenient way is still urgent. Herein, a rutile Cr- and Sb-codoped TiO 2 nanoparticle was synthesized via homogeneous precipitation and was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray fluorescence. Subsequently, the as-prepared nanoparticle was used to visualize latent fingermarks using a powder dusting method and to enhance the visualization of bloody fingermarks using a small particle reagent method on porous, semiporous, and nonporous substrates. Notably, the anti-ultraviolet property of this yellow nanoparticle was investigated. This intriguing property contributed to the detection of latent fingermarks on strong-fluorescence or multicolored surfaces in a negative-image manner. Moreover, two potential interaction mechanisms were proposed between hemoglobin and surfactants in bloody fingermark enhancement. This work showed that this rutile TiO 2 nanoparticle doped with Cr and Sb is a versatile eikonogen for the rapid visualization of latent and bloody fingermarks and has high sensitivity, selectivity, contrast as well as wide applicability compared with traditional developing methods.

User-friendly fingerprint powders, namely efficient, low-cost and nontoxic ones, are always desirable for the development of latent fingerprints (LFPs). Here, we described the use of pristine graphic carbon nitride quantum dots (g-C3N4 QDs) as a new kind of user-friendly fingerprint powder. The g-C3N4 QDs can be easily prepared from urea and sodium citrate precursors through low temperature solid-phase reaction. Due to their good optical properties and selective interactions with secretion residuals, the g-C3N4 QDs powders were exploited to develop LFPs on different substrates by the powder dusting technique. The LFP images on a plastic bag exhibited a high ridge and furrow contrast ratio, allowing for easy identification of level 1 – 3 details of LFPs. This work indicates that the g-C3N4 QD powders provide good performance for LFP visualization and is likely to be adopted for some applications in forensic investigations.

Graphical A hydrophobic binding-driven and fluorescence-free development of aged latent fingerprints using silane modified zinc oxide nanoparticles both in positive and reversed imaging mode is proposed, exhibiting the high contrast, high sensitivity, high selectivity and wide applicability. The requirement of nonfluorescent developers for aged latent fingerprint development is still of great urgency in forensic science. To enhance the specific interaction between fingerprint residue and nano-developers, a γ-methacryloxy propyl trimethoxyl silane (MPTS) modified zinc oxide nanoparticle (ZnO NP) was synthesized. The crystal structure, morphology, surface functional group, thermostability, UV/Vis spectra, photoluminescence and stability of sedimentation were characterized to prove the hydrophobicity, UV blocking nature and nonfluorescence of as-prepared MPTS-modified ZnO NPs. Additionally, after the specific surface area (SSA) of samples with different MPTS amount was analyzed by BET, a competitive adsorption mechanism between silane-ZnO bonding and silane oligomer-ZnO deposition was suggested. In the demonstration of latent fingerprint development, the powder dusting method was utilized on various surfaces both in positive and reversed imaging modes, exhibiting the high contrast, high sensitivity, high selectivity and wide applicability, even for aged fingerprints. Therefore, it provides a new strategy for fast, efficient and inexpensive development of older latent fingerprints in forensic analysis.

Fingerprints are unique characteristics of an individual; therefore, the imaging and recognition of latent fingerprints (LFPs) are a top-priority task in forensic science. Fast visualization of LFPs can greatly help policemen in screening potential criminal scenes and capturing fingerprint clues. Here, we developed a simple, rapid, easily performed method for nondestructive visualization of sebaceous LFPs using “silver imaging ink” as a new imaging moiety. In principle, when the ink dried at a proper temperature, in situ generation of dark silver nanoparticles on the fingerprint's furrow areas occurred and resulted in a negative image of the LFPs. Interestingly, the preparation of silver imaging ink and the visualization of LFPs were carried out in a short period time of no more than 10 min in total. Fingerprints on different nonporous surfaces and from different volunteers were detected successfully. Moreover, the level 2 and 3 substructures of the fingerprints could also be clearly identified. Thus, the present method opens a new avenue for LFP detection and will find wide-ranging applications in forensic investigations.

Fingerprints are unique characteristics of an individual, and their imaging and recognition is a top-priority task in forensic science. Fast LFP (latent fingerprint) acquirement can greatly help policemen in screening the potential criminal scenes and capturing fingerprint clues. Of the two major latent fingerprints (LFP), eccrine is expected to be more representative than sebaceous in LFP identification. Here we explored the heavy metal-free Mn-doped ZnS quantum dots (QDs) as a new imaging moiety for eccrine LFPs. To study the effects of different ligands on the LFP image quality, we prepared Mn-doped ZnS QDs with various surface-capping ligands using QDs synthesized in high-temperature organic media as starting material. The orange fluorescence emission from Mn-doped ZnS QDs clearly revealed the optical images of eccrine LFPs. Interestingly, N-acetyl-cysteine-capped Mn-doped ZnS QDs could stain the eccrine LFPs in as fast as 5 s. Meanwhile, the levels 2 and 3 substructures of the fingerprints could also be simultaneously and clearly identified. While in the absence of QDs or without rubbing and stamping the finger onto foil, no fluorescent fingerprint images could be visualized. Besides fresh fingerprint, aged (5, 10, and 50 days), incomplete eccrine LFPs could also be successfully stained with N-acetyl-cysteine-capped Mn-doped ZnS QDs, demonstrating the analytical potential of this method in real world applications. The method was also robust for imaging of eccrine LFPs on a series of nonporous surfaces, such as aluminum foil, compact discs, glass, and black plastic bags.

An efficient method has been developed for visualizing latent fingerprints by spatially selective electropolymerization of luminol on the ITO electrode. The fingerprint deposited on the electrode surface functions as a mask so that polyluminol is formed on the bare electrode surface. Therefore, electrochemiluminescence is only generated between the ridges of fingerprint, eventually yielding a negative ECL image. This method is easy to operate and safe to examiners. In addition, the second- and third-level details of fingerprints can be well resolved, indicating the potential application for personal identification and forensic investigation.

Taking the same developing strategy for different types of latent fingerprints is helpful in improving the efficiency of criminal investigation. Here we advanced a new strategy based on amino-functionalized poly( p -phenylenevinylene) nanoparticles (PPV-brPEI NPs) in aqueous colloidal solution as the developing reagent. The desirable amino functionality and strong emission of NPs were simultaneously realized by adding branched polyethyleneimine (brPEI) during the process of thermal elimination of the PPV polymer precursor. The NPs were demonstrated to have negligible effects on the extraction of biological information from DNA . Using the PPV-brPEI NPs-soaked cotton pad, both latent sebaceous fingerprints (LSFPs) and latent blood fingerprints (LBFPs) can be effectively developed on different nonporous substrates. This strategy was highly sensitive and effective for aged, contaminated and moldy fingerprints. Additionally, the developed fingerprints could tolerate humidity environment and the alcohol atmosphere. The mechanism investigation suggests that interaction between PPV-brPEI NPs and sebum ingredients contributes to the development of LSFPs and interaction between PPV-brPEI NPs and proteins in blood contributes to the development of LBFPs, but the former is not as stable as the latter. This work provides a simple, environment/operator-friendly strategy for efficient fingerprint development, which is very promising for practical criminal investigations.

A convenient and mild method for preparing multicolor carbon dots (CDs) using the solvothermal process and extraction has been developed. After doping CDs as the cross-linking agent into γ-(2,3-epoxypropoxy)propytrimethoxysilane solution, orange, yellow, and blue emitting powders were fabricated, which effectively avoid aggregation-caused quenching and emit bright luminescence. By introducing oily chain segments, the interaction between the fluorescent powder and fingerprint residue is improved as well as the imaging ability of latent fingerprints. Level 1–3 features can be extracted using the CD powder developed fingerprints. Additionally, seven substrates with different surface appearance, colours, and interference were chosen to deposit on fingerprints, in which all the substrates have a good combination with the CD powder and showed excellent contrast and visibility. Notably, the as-prepared CDs can be used for acetate ion (AcO−) sensing. The CDs exhibit an efficient response to AcO− by an ‘‘on–off’’ switching strategy. As a sensing probe, the CDs exhibit a wide concentration range (3 × 10−7–3 × 10−3 M) of response to AcO− with a low fluorescence response threshold (0.3 μM).

The recognition of fingerprints has played an extremely important role in criminal investigations, due to its uniqueness. This paper reports on the recognition of sweat latent fingerprints using green-emitting, environment-friendly carbon dots prepared with DL-malic acid and ethylenediamine, and the exploration of impacting factors in the development process of fingerprints. The experiments showed that better fingerprint images could be obtained when the latent fingerprints are developed in green-emitting carbon dots with pH 9 for 30 min, at room temperature. The reported method was also effective for latent fingerprints on a variety of substrates, as well as for those water-immersed ones, where the developed fingerprint remained stable after long-term preservation. Furthermore, the fluorescent three-dimensional fingerprint image could provide direct and simple evidence on pressing habits. The objective of this paper was to present this method. The method may help to narrow the range of suspects during criminal investigations and in forensic science.Keywords:green;carbon dots;sweat latent fingerprints;forensic science

A novel method for synthesizing dumbbell-shaped (Gd1−xTbx)2O(CO3)2·H2O (GOC:xTb3+) phosphors using sodium carbonate was investigated. An amount of 1 mmol of stable fluorescent powder can be widely prepared using 3–11 mmol of Na2CO3at a pH value of 8.5–10.5 in the reaction solution. The optimal reaction conditions for the phosphors were determined to be 7 mmol for the amount of sodium carbonate and a pH of 9.5 in the solution. Mapping analysis of the elements confirmed uniform distribution of Gd3+and Tb3+elements in GOC:xTb3+. The analysis of fluorescence intensity shows that an optimal excitation wavelength of 273 nm is observed when the concentration of Tb3+is between 0.005 and 0.3. The highest emission intensity was observed for GOC:0.05Tb3+with a 57.5% maximum quantum efficiency. The chromaticity coordinates show that the color of GOC:Tb3+is stable and suitable for fluorescence recognition. Latent fingerprint visualization reveals distinctive features like whorls, hooks, and bifurcations. Therefore, the sodium carbonate method offers an effective alternative to traditional urea chemical reaction conditions for preparing GOC:Tb3+.
