The results obtained from the present investigations using different colors (used in eatables and during the holi festival – gulal) on various surfaces (normal paper, aluminum foil, top surface of CD and aluminum sheet) are shown in Figure 1, Figure 2, Figure 3, Figure 4, Figure 5, Figure 6, Figure 7, Figure 8, Figure 9, Figure 10, Figure 11, Figure 12, Figure 13 and Figure 14. The results as shown in figures are obtained when powder dusting method has been applied on different surfaces using conventional as well as new powders. The similar types of results are also obtained when brushing method is used for development of latent prints on different surfaces. The figures show the comparative evaluation of latent fingerprints development with various colors on different surfaces. It has been observed that latent prints of pure sweat were not developed on normal paper using food colors while the same get developed using conventional black powder as shown in Fig. 2. In case of aluminum foil surface and developed by using food colors sweat prints showed comparatively better results as is evident from Figure 3 and Figure 4. The sebum prints present on CD surface showed better results than that of sweat prints as revealed by Figure 5 and Figure 6. It has been noticed that in few of the samples the prints deposited by sweat as well as sebum showed equally good results as is evident from Figure 7 and Figure 8. This may be due to the variation in sweat and sebum content deposited by different individuals. Similar type of results (i.e. in few cases) have been observed by using holi colors used for the development of prints on aluminum foil surface as (Figure 11 and Figure 12) while on paper surface sebum prints gave more clear results as compared to sweat (Figure 9 and Figure 10). Latent fingerprints of sebum deposited on the top surface of CD and developed with holi colors showed better results as compared to that of sweat prints and these found to be better than that as produced by using conventional black and fluorescent powder on the same surface. These results indicate that the decipherment of latent fingerprints depends upon the powder used, surface and the contents of fingerprint deposited.
