Abstract

Fingermarks remain as important individual characteristic evidence for identifying individuals during forensic investigations. However, the assessment of latent fingermarks can be challenging due to their hidden nature, necessitating the development of suitable visualization methods. Currently, the available methods for visualizing fingermarks on wet non-porous objects (e.g., Small Particle Reagent) contain hazardous and toxic chemicals. As such, the utilization of Candida rugosa lipase nanoconjugate for developing a greener forensic fingermark visualization technology for wet non-porous objects has been suggested. Notwithstanding, the utilization of other microbial lipases for the same purpose remains unreported. Considering such an aspect, reviewing the potential of the different microbial lipases as candidates for fingermark visualization technology proves relevant. Hence, this review article that accentuates the contextual importance of microbial lipases for greener fingermark visualization technology complying with the prevailing guidelines and its challenges and future insights for forensic investigations merits scientific and forensic considerations.

 

Keywords: forensic science, latent fingermarks, microbial lipase, Candida rugosa, Rhizomucor miehei

 

 

Abstrak

Cap jari merupakan bukti ciri individu yang penting dalam mengenalpasti individu semasa penyiasatan forensik. Namun, penilaian cap jari pendam adalah mencabar kerana sifatnya yang tersembunyi, memerlukan pembangunan kaedah pemvisualan yang sesuai. Pada masa ini, kaedah tersedia bagi pemvisualan cap jari pada objek berliang yang basah (contohnya Pembangun Fizikal dan Reagen Partikel Kecil) mengandungi bahan kimia berbahaya dan toksik. Justeru, penggunaan lipase Candida rugosa konjugatnano bagi membangunkan teknologi pemvisualan cap jari forensik yang lebih hijau untuk objek tidak berliang yang basah telah dicadangkan. Walau bagaimanapun, penggunaan lipase mikrob yang lain bagi tujuan yang sama masih tidak dilaporkan. Mengambil kira aspek berkenaan, tinjauan potensi pelbagai lipase mikrob sebagai calon untuk teknologi pemvisualan cap jari terbukti relevan. Oleh itu, artikel tinjauan ini yang menyerlahkan kepentingan konteks lipase mikrob sebagai teknologi pemvisualan cap jari yang lebih hijau dan mematuhi garis panduan lazim, serta cabarannya dan pandangan terkehadapan bagi penyiasatan forensik melayakkan pertimbangan saintifik dan forensik.
