Ninhydrin Spray

£65.00

AN aerosol version of our Ninhydrin Spray, it will not run inks and contains no CFCs or acetic acids. Simply spray NIN-Print on the evidence you wish to process and allow it to air dry in a fume hood or under controlled conditions. Latent prints may take a few days to fully develop, but prints may begin to appear after a few hours. All Ninhydrin solutions should be used with proper respiratory protection or in a fume hood. Ninhydrin is one of the best processes available to develop latent prints on paper evidence, such as bad cheques, hold-up notes and threatening letters. To avoid the use of aerosol sprays, which may not saturate the paper as well, here is an alternative. This formulation of Ninhydrin will not run most inks. With this bottle, you have the option of unscrewing the lid, pouring the solution into a tray and dipping paper evidence for maximum saturation and superior development of latent prints. This solution is hazardous and must be sprayed in a fume hood and stored inside a flammable liquids cabinet.

Description

Ninhydrin Spray & Solution – Professional Latent Print Development
Our Ninhydrin formulations offer the most effective method for developing latent fingerprints on porous surfaces. Forensic laboratories and crime scene investigators use this essential reagent to process evidence like cheques, banknotes, and threatening letters. Because Ninhydrin reacts specifically with amino acids in fingerprint residue, it produces a distinct “Ruhemann’s Purple” ridge detail.
Advanced Formulation for Evidence Integrity
We supply an aerosol version of our Ninhydrin Spray specifically for professional forensic use. This formulation features several key benefits for your evidence processing:
  • Ink-Safe Application: This solution will not run most inks. Consequently, you can preserve the legibility of handwritten documents or printed financial instruments.
  • CFC and Acid-Free: The aerosol contains no CFCs or acetic acids. This reduces the chemical impact on both the environment and the evidence itself.
  • Controlled Drying: You should spray the evidence and allow it to air dry within a fume hood. While prints may begin to appear within hours, they often take several days to develop fully under ambient conditions.
Maximum Saturation with Dipping Solutions
You may require superior development for high-priority cases. Therefore, we provide a versatile liquid formulation as a robust alternative to aerosol mists. Aerosol sprays sometimes fail to saturate thicker paper stocks completely.
  • The Dipping Method: You have the option to unscrew the lid and pour the solution into a processing tray. By dipping paper evidence directly, you achieve maximum saturation.
  • Superior Results: This method often leads to better visualisation of latent prints. It ensures you identify every trace of amino acid for the best possible ridge detail.
Safety and Storage Requirements
These solutions are hazardous and flammable. Thus, you must handle them with extreme care. Always use Ninhydrin products under a fume hood or with proper respiratory protection to avoid inhalation. Furthermore, you must store these chemicals inside a dedicated flammable liquids cabinet to comply with standard laboratory safety protocols.
