Not all fingerprints found at a crime scene look the same. π£π Learn the difference between latent, patent, and plastic fingerprints in this easy-to-understand forensic science infographic. πΉ Latent fingerprints β usually invisible impressions formed by sweat and skin oils; often require development. πΉ Patent fingerprints β visible impressions made by substances such as blood, ink, paint, or grease. πΉ Plastic fingerprints β three-dimensional impressions formed when a finger presses into a soft or malleable surface such as clay, wax, putty, or soil. The infographic also includes a quick comparison of visibility, formation, surface, examples, and recovery methods. π Useful for forensic science students, criminology students, CSI learners, and anyone interested in fingerprint examination
