ABSTRACT

Plamar surface of human hands and feet are covered with the epidermis of skin, consisting of ridges
and configurations which are inherited and are permanent. A sample prints of 10 intersex and 20
normal persons (10 normal males and 10 normal females) were taken and considered for the
dermatoglyphics study in order to compare different parameters like triradii angles (ATD,TAD and
ADT) , ridge count (a-b, b-c and c-d), length, width and ridge patterns. It was observed from the
study that there is a increase in ATD angle, ridge count a-b and high tented arc in intersex people
when compared to that of normal person. However, the other parameters like length and width are
coinciding with normal males and females.
Key words: Dermatoglyphics, Intersex, Palm, Ridge count, Parameters
