Fingerprints are important evidence in any crime scene, and nano-based techniques have a lot of potential in fingerprint investigations in the future. Fingerprints have often been and still are considered one of the most valuable types of physical evidence for personal identification. The prints left behind at a crime scene are usually latent (invisible) fingerprints and thus, the distinct ridge details of fingerprints can be obtained by applying different nanoparticles such as silver, zinc oxide, silicon dioxide, aluminium oxide, gold, carbon and silica on a variety of object surfaces, with gold being the most commonly used. The use of nanoparticles can improve the quality and stability of latent fingerprints. As a result, this review study focuses on the use of various nanomaterials in the development and detection of latent fingerprints.","PeriodicalId":231200,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Forensic Sciences","volume":"92 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126187189","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This evaluation of Van Gogh indicates that there were some risks factors and concerns for suicide in Arles and St Remy Asylum; however, while living in Auvers-sur-Oise, the C-SSRS evaluation reinforces that Van Gogh was living an extremely productive artistic life, doing a painting a day with breakthrough originality. There were no further vertigo attacks; he expressed no suicidal ideation nor gestures or self-injurious behavior. While in Auvers-sur-Oise, Van Gogh had become emotionally settled, found love, and was becoming a recognized breakthrough artist. KVP’s C-SSRS evaluation indicates a ‘negative suicidal profile assessment’ in his last 70 days. Therefore, it is reasonable to conclude: Vincent van Gogh did not commit suicide.","PeriodicalId":231200,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Forensic Sciences","volume":"103 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132095782","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition to a burn to the hand, the worker also alleged injuries to his back due to jerking quickly to withdraw his hand from the rail and twisting his body in a manner that aggravated his lower back. After the incident, the claimant filed a lawsuit alleging negligence for the welder’s failure to adequately demarcate and restrict access to the hot work area. A forensic engineering company was hired to re-create and analyze the site conditions, review the information provided, and determine to a reasonable degree of engineering probability the validity of the claimant’s allegations in relation to the potential for temperature ranges likely at the time of the accident.","PeriodicalId":231200,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Forensic Sciences","volume":"40 12","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132758141","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
