Assuming this question is in reference to a Fingerprint chemical treatment...

It depends on the carrier used for the Ninhydrin solution. This most common formula used these days is with HFE 7100. This solution is nonflammable.

It does also have very small amounts of Acetic Acid, Ethanol and Ethyl Acetate but of such a small quality compared to the HFE 7100 that the resulting working solution is considered to be nonflammable.

Older formulas used to use petroleum ether or heptane which are highly flammable.
