Nanotechnology: An Applied and Robust Approach for Forensic Investigation (original) (raw)

2016, Foresic Research & Criminology International Journal

Nanotechnology, the manipulation of matter at the atomic and molecular level to form novel materials with unusually diverse and unique properties, is a quickly expanding area of research with immense potential in several fields, ranging from health care to production and physical science. In forensic science it promises to revolutionize the applicability of microfluidic systems in post-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) quantification, DNA extraction media, fingerprint visualization using nano-powder. In general, Forensic Nanotechnology will transform the bulky instruments into small chip-based platforms, and shorten analysis methods to make investigations, sensitive, timely, and applicable.
