Blood Fixative is highly recommended for setting fingerprints or impressions left in blood.
Blood Fixative is an essential reagent that preserves and stabilizes latent prints or impression evidence left in blood before using water-based enhancement techniques. It sets the blood in place to prevent smearing, distortion, or loss of ridge detail—maintaining the integrity of crucial evidence throughout the development process.
Perfect for crime scene and lab work, Blood Fixative protects fragile blood evidence from environmental factors and handling. It allows forensic professionals to confidently use chemical or fluorescent staining methods like Amido Black, Acid Yellow 7, and other aqueous reagents—without compromising print or pattern quality.
Especially critical for porous surfaces like fabric, paper, or wood, Blood Fixative prevents blood from soaking in or smearing during processing.
