Field Application and Benefits
The Cyanowand provides forensic investigators with mobility and speed. The system utilises specialised cartridges to create a directed stream of fumes for evidence processing.
- Rapid Visualisation: Directing fumes onto surfaces such as metals, plastics, and glass causes ridge detail to appear as a hard, white polymer within seconds.
- Evidence Security: Fuming evidence immediately “fixes” the print, protecting delicate ridge detail from accidental smudging during transport or handling.
- Versatile Use: This kit functions effectively in various outdoor and indoor settings where traditional fuming chambers are impractical.
Post-Processing & Enhancement
After the initial fuming process, the contrast for forensic photography can be improved.
- Fluorescent Staining: Specialised dyes or powders applied to the fumed residue enhance visibility.
- Forensic Light Sources: Using a Forensic Light Source (ALS) allows for the visualisation of treated prints with high clarity.
- High-Resolution Results: This combination ensures the capture of high-quality images for fingerprint comparison and identification.
Professional Standards and Safety
This kit includes the necessary safety components for controlled field use. Chemical vapours require careful handling at all times. Use of the Cyanowand should occur in well-ventilated areas while wearing appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE). Replacement glue cartridges and enhancement dyes are available in the full collection of chemical enhancement products.https://www.tetrasoc.com/product-category/chemical-enhancement/
