MVClite is a fully portable fingerprint fuming chamber for the safe and controlled development of latent fingerprints at the crime scene.

Mounted within a rugged weather-proof case, the MVClite retains all the features of a full sized fuming chamber and can be used for the development of latent fingerprints using both cyanoacrylate and PolyCyano UV, the cyanoacrylate/fluorescent stain that eliminates the need for subsequent chemical dyeing.

A fully automated system with safety interlocks and self contained fume cleansing, the MVClite maintains a safe environment for the rapid visualisation of fingerprints on evidence at the crime scene.

MVC®lite Applications:

Cyanoacrylate fuming is one of the most commonly used methods of developing latent fingerprints on a wide variety of surfaces.

As the cyanoacrylate glue evaporates it reacts with the amino acids, fatty acids and proteins in the fingerprint and the mositure in the air to produce a visible white polymer  along the ridges of the fingerprint that can be photographed or further enhanced by dusting with a coloured powder or by coating with a fluorescent dye.
