Abstract
In this case report, we describe the possibility of using ninhydrin-dyed fingerprints as a DNA source for STR typing. Preliminary tests prove that ninhydrin-dyed material still can be useful for STR typing. The case material consisted of seven ninhydrin-labeled latent fingerprints found at a murder crime site, which could not be typed in a classical manner. We were able to swap DNA from the ninhydrin-treated areas and successfully use it for STR typing.
