The first TRUE artificial human ecrine sweat control material for all of your amino acid techniques! (Ninhydrin, DFO, etc) Made with NIST traceable amino acids, salts & metal ions to truly emulate human ecrine sweat! NO preservatives or other...

Ninhydrin is a widely used chemical for developing latent prints on paper products. When the amino acids in the latent-print residues are exposed to ninhydrin, they react to form a purplish-blue stain. The proper concentration and formula for a...

Nin Plus Ultra is an aerosol-based latent fingerprint development product for use on porous surfaces (e.g. checks, paper, etc.). Nin Plus Ultra dramatically shortens print development time. Latent fingerprints begin developing in as few as 20...

ThermaNin is a ninhydrin derivative for developing fingerprints on thermal paper. Regular ninhydrin and DFO solutions are either based on polar solvents (like acetone or ether) or contain them. These turn the top (active) layer of thermal paper...

Like regular ninhydrin, it will develop purple fingerprints when used on paper. The color of the fingerprints developed with 5-MTN is stronger than the color that is obtained with regular ninhydrin. Therefore, the concentration of 5-MTN in a...

Ardrox is a fluorescent liquid dye which works well with lasers, Forensic Light Sources and UV lamps. Ardrox can be used full-strength or can be diluted with ethanol or methanol. Since the solution is about the consistency of syrup, most examiners...
