Inside Back Cover: Near-Infrared-Light-Mediated Imaging of Latent Fingerprints based on Molecular Recognition (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 6/2014)
Near-infrared-light-mediated imaging and molecular recognition have been combined for the detection of latent fingerprints. Q. Yuan et al. describe in their Communication on page 1616 ff. how this general technique does not suffer from background fluorescence interference and simultaneously meets the selectivity and generality criteria for the detection of fingerprints, thus providing high evidential quality for individual identification.
