Savannah River Technical Center Research<br />

Another project was recently begun at the Savannah River Technical Center<br />

(SRTC) <strong>in</strong> cooperation with the USSS to analyze latent pr<strong>in</strong>t residue and how<br />

it changes with time. With fund<strong>in</strong>g from both the TSWG and Department<br />

of Energy, the SRTC is look<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>to characteriz<strong>in</strong>g the degradation products<br />

formed as the latent pr<strong>in</strong>t residue ages to determ<strong>in</strong>e if any of these compounds<br />

may be suitable for chemical visualization reagents. The SRTC is<br />

focus<strong>in</strong>g on the formation of hydroperoxides, one class of breakdown products<br />

formed as lipids oxidize. A series of standard lipids representative of the
