Microscale thermal imaging confirmed that the ridge pattern transfer occurred on the tops of the most prominent threads in weave. Prints were readily imaged on the more hydrophobic fabrics in both heat-up and cool-down phases of vapor exposure. On the more hydrophilic cotton fabric, ridge detail was obscured by the strong background response of the fabric to moisture. The project concluded that microscale thermography indicates that loose cotton strands with transferred blood may respond differentially to moisture relative to uncoated strands.
