New fingermarks detection technology
Sheffield Hallam University has indicated that the Home Office Centre for Applied Science and Technology is interested in the university’s research on fingermarks detection technology. The Home Office is co-funding a £80,000 Ph.D. studentship with the University’s Biomedical Research Centre (BMRC) to allow for further testing. It is hoped that the technology will be incorporated into standard police investigation within a few years.
The new technology uses Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption Ionisation Mass Spectrometry Imaging (MALDI-MSI) to provide crime scene investigators with key extra details about suspects; such as any substances they might have touched, can provide crucial background information in a criminal investigation.
The new technology uses MALDI-MSI for the first time to produce multiple images of fingermarks that can provide extra information on a suspect. A fingermark is made up of material from the surface of the skin and from gland secretions. Conventionally, fingermarks found at the scene of a crime are lifted, often using a powder, and are compared with prints on a police database to identify a suspect.
