Barwa jako podstawowa cecha w badaniach porównawczych mikrośladów w formie włókien

Abstract

Forensic evidence in the form of fibres is recovered in cases involving sexual offenses, assault, murder and road accidents. In the event when a connection between persons is determined, fibres transferred from an offender’s to a victim’s clothing and vice versa are sought for. Colour is the first physico-chemical property verified during forensic analysis. Any colour differences between materials recovered at the crime scene and those originating from a suspect's clothing suggestthat fibres cannot have come from the same source. The aim ofthis article is to introduce the colour-related issues as they pertain to forensic fibre evidence.
