Cnet : A home burglary has led to a scientific breakthrough that has the potential to overhaul more than a century of established forensic practice, changing the way police dust for fingerprints at a crime scene.
When Australian scientist Dr Kang Liang's home was robbed, police dusted his house for prints but failed to turn up any significant clues. But the process led Liang to question whether there was a more effective way to survey a crime scene, and his materials science background soon produced an answer: fingerprints that glow.
Working with a team of scientists at Australia's CSIRO research facility, Liang developed a liquid that can be applied to nonporous surfaces, revealing glowing green fingerprints that appear under a blacklight in less than 30 seconds.
