the wavelength (color) of the light would vary depending on the reflected wavelength of the stain. in other words it depends on what kind of stain you are looking for. UV (blacklight) while looking through amber/orange lenses shows most bodily fluids.

What is easier to detect when using forensic light?

Blood stains are typically easier to detect using forensic light, as they contain hemoglobin that fluoresces when exposed to certain wavelengths of light. This fluorescence can make blood stains stand out more visibly against different surfaces.


How can light be invisible?

Light can be invisible if its wavelength falls outside the visible spectrum that the human eye can detect. For example, ultraviolet and infrared light are invisible to the naked eye but can still interact with objects and be detected by specialized equipment.


What color is the atmosphere on Mars?

The air is invisible, it reflects no light and therefor has no color.


What stains does black light show?

no.the only light that can do that is a special light used by the crime investigators and the color of that light is a light purple or light green. No that is not true its more of any black light which is a purple light not only do the crime investigators have it you can buy it at any store.


Why is light invisible to the human eye?

Light is invisible to the human eye because our eyes can only detect a small range of wavelengths within the electromagnetic spectrum, and light falls within a range that is visible to us.


What eye cell does not detect color?

Rod cells do not detect color. They are responsible for detecting low levels of light and are more sensitive to brightness and contrast rather than color. Cone cells, on the other hand, are responsible for detecting color.


What color do you perceive when your eyes detect no light?

Black


How do rods detect color in the human eye?

Rods in the human eye do not detect color. They are responsible for detecting light and dark, while cones are the cells that detect color. Cones contain three types of pigments that are sensitive to different wavelengths of light, allowing us to perceive color.


What cells in the eye detect light and dark but not color?

Rods are for seeing light and dark, cones are for seeing color.


Which color invisible light has the longest wave length?

Red light has the longest wavelength in the visible light spectrum.

What can detect semen stains?

As far as I know... REAL blacklights will detect any trace of a mammal.... hair, urine, vomit, feces, and... sperm!! just make sure the room is as dark as you can get it and shine that light around until something glows!
