ABSTRACT:
A method for rendering latent fingerprints at a site on a portion of skin detectable. The method comprises the steps of forming a cyanoacrylate vapor from a cyanoacrylate, conducting the cyanoacrylate vapor to the site on a portion of skin, and applying the cyanoacrylate vapor to the site at a sufficient concentration for a period of time of between about 15 seconds and about 30 seconds sufficient to deposit between about 0.31 mg/cm.sup.2 and about 0.78 mg/cm.sup.2 of the cyanoacrylate on the portion of skin. The present invention also provides an apparatus for rendering latent fingerprints at a site on a portion of skin detectable.
