This study determined the fingerprint patterns of 1,000 students at Federal Polytechnic Ede, Osun State, Nigeria. A fingerprint is a reproduction of the friction ridges present on the inner surface of a fingertip. Fingerprint patterns were classified based on the appearance of ridge lines, identifying loops, whorls, and arches. Samples were collected using a random sampling method. Materials used in this study included a stamp pad, white paper, bio, methylated spirit, and cotton wool. The thumbs of both hands of the respondents were printed on plain white paper. Demographic data, including name, age, sex, department, and state of origin, were collected. Of the 1,000 students, 571 were female and 429 were male. The study spanned five months, from December 2021 to May 2022. The loop pattern was the most prevalent, while the arch pattern was the least common. The distribution of dermatoglyphic patterns was found to be nearly identical on both hands, with no significant bilateral variations; however, an association between fingerprint pattern distribution and gender was established. |
