Discovering and developing a latent print is a sophisticated task in a crime scene investigation due to the enormous diver- sity of surfaces on which prints may be found. Generally, three methods i.e., powder dusting, fuming and chemical develop- ment are used to develop latent fingerprints on a wide range of surfaces which may be commonly classified as non-porous, porous and semi-porous surfaces [6]. Powder dusting is a super- lative method for fingerprint development on both non-porous and semi-porous substrates on account of their low surface adsorptivity [6]. The fundamental principle behind the powder dusting method is the adherence of powder particles with the fingerprint residues [3,5,8]. Previous researches [3,9] have shown that the particle size of powder is inversely proportional to its efficiency of adherence. In past, numerous researches [3,5,7-22] had carried out the investigation of the efficacy of various conventional and non-conventional powders in the development of latent prints. A list of different non-conventional powders used for latent print development on a variety of non- porous and semi-porous surfaces is shown in Table-1.
