Abstract

Nanotechnology has proven its supremacy with enormous applications to outdated methods in medical, electronic, engineering, and other fields. In forensic science, nanotechnology research has delivered a new viewpoint for real-time crime investigation and established progressive nano sensors, nano-manipulators, and nano-imaging tools for visualization. Often, nanotechnology helps in augmenting and improving the productivity of already existing and applied forensic techniques with high precision, sensitivity, and reducing the time required. So, this chapter reviews international activities in nano forensic in different branches of forensic science (e.g., for inspecting questioned documents, age of bloodstains, and time since death, along with its application in improving PCR efficiency, DNA analysis, and explosive detection). Therefore, in this chapter, an effort has been made to highlight the new outlook or knowledge of nanotechnology with its applications in several divisions of forensic science at an international level.
