Reflecting new discoveries in fingerprint science, Lee and
Gaensslen s Advances in Fingerprint Technology, Third Edition has
been completely updated with new material and nearly double the
references contained in the previous edition. The book begins with
a detailed review of current, widely used development techniques,
as well as some older, historical methods. Next, it describes more
recent advances as well as novel, emerging technologies that have

- Advances in the area of blood reagents, and the transition from
previously carcinogenic peroxidase reagents to new and safer
protein staining methods
- The vacuum metal deposition technique
- The cyanoacrylate fuming process
- An update on ninhydrin analogs
- Emerging trends in print development using nanotechnology
- Latent print recovery and decontamination at scenes tainted by
chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosive
materials
- A model for quantitatively interpreting and assessing minutiae
in a print
- Methods for digital and chemical imaging of latent prints
With contributions by a renowned group of leading forensic
scientists and criminalistics experts, this valuable work presents
the latest progress in fingerprint technologies, comparison, and
identification.
