Intelligent Fingerprinting Limited have developed a technology that allows metabolitespresent in the human body to be detected in human fingerprints. This in turn allows manysubstances that a person may have consumed to be detected (semi-quantitatively) in verysmall quantities. This proposal is aimed at proving the technology feasible for use indetecting drugs of abuse (DoA) in a variety of circumstances including criminal justice andwork place testing. To allow this to happen the project must develop a way to establish thatfingertips are not contaminated in any way by first cleaning them and stimulating theproduction of sweat by using a method known as iontophorisis. This is an established methodof producing sweat that been used for testing for Cystic Fibrosis in people for many years;however, to adapt and use it for the IFP fingerprint test carries with it many technical andcommercial risks.

智能指纹识别有限公司开发了一种技术，可以在人体指纹中检测到人体内存在的代谢物。这反过来又允许一个人可能已经消耗的许多物质被检测（半定量）在非常小的数量。该提案旨在证明该技术可用于在各种情况下检测药物滥用（DoA），包括刑事司法和工作场所测试。为了实现这一点，该项目必须开发一种方法，首先通过清洁指尖并使用一种称为离子电渗的方法刺激汗液的产生，来确定指尖没有受到任何形式的污染。这是一种产生汗液的既定方法，多年来一直用于测试人们的囊性纤维化;然而，将其用于IFP指纹测试会带来许多技术和商业风险。
