Abstract
Lueco-crystal violet(LCV) is a very effective reagent used to enhance bloodstain. However, when the LCV is treated to the bloody fingerprint, the bubbling occurs, so that the minutiae and features of the fingerprint can be damaged. In this study, we studied a method to reduce the bubbling of LCV. As a result, the most effective method for reduction bubbling and enhancement bloodstain was to treat ethanol-based aminotriazole(AT) solution before LCV treatment.
