Join us at the Foster+Freeman Facts26 Conference for this live presentation!
This lecture and hands-on blood enhancement workshop is designed to provide a deeper scientific understanding of blood evidence at the crime scene and in the laboratory. Participants will examine the physiological properties of blood and the chemical composition of natural latent print residue to support informed, case-specific decisions regarding the sequential processing of blood-contaminated evidence.

The course covers the chemistry behind common blood enhancement techniques, including how reagents function, proper application methods, limitations, and potential pitfalls.

The practical portion of the workshop focuses on fluorescent blood enhancement using Acid Violet 17, Acid Fuchsin, and Acid Yellow 7. Participants will utilize the Crime-lite AUTO to search for, detect, and document enhanced evidence.
