SUMMARY:

Among the various methods and techniques that comprise Forensic Sciences, Papilloscopy is undoubtedly the most used for human identification. In Forensic Papiloscopy, developing powders are the most used materials in forensics, as they are easy to apply, portable and very versatile. On the other hand, the vast majority are toxic products that are harmful to the health of professionals due to their constant exposure, making the work environment unhealthy, in addition to having high market values. Given these assumptions and in the search for more sustainable and technological solutions, graphene oxide, an alternative nanomaterial, with the potential to replace conventional powders, with greater efficiency, lower toxicity and cost, can be a viable alternative. Due to its nanometric size and its other characteristics such as high contact surface, presence of oxygenated functional groups that allow several interactions with other substances, graphene oxide can be used in Forensic Sciences in order to replace conventional developer powders. In this context, this work aims to develop alternative developers for forensic purposes, through the functionalization of graphene oxide, applying the principles of Green Chemistry and Sustainability.
