PRIMER RESIDUE TRACESWhen a weapon is fired, gunpowder residues are propelled toward thetarget. Primer and gunpowder residues are blown back in the direction of theshooter. In most cases, trace amounts of these residues aredeposited on the shooter’s firing hand. The detectionof these trace residues can give valuableinformation regarding whether or nota particular individual has recently
fired a weapon. The collection ofprimer residues deposited on thehand of the shooter—normally on thethumb web and the back of the hand holdingthe weapon, is accomplished by swabbing thoseareas with plastic cotton tips that have been moistenedwith a 5 percent nitric acid solution. Determining whether ornot a particular person has fired a weapon is normally accomplishedby measuring the amount of barium and antimony on the suspect’s hands.Atomic absorption spectrophotometry analysis has proven to be verysuccessful in identifying these trace residues.

AAA100 Atomic Absorption Analysis Test Kit/10 Test Kits $69.95
AToMIC AbSoRPTIon AnAlySISAtomic Absorption Analysis is considered to be a sensitive,most effective method for the detection of firearmdischarge residue on the skin or clothing of a suspect. TheAAA process has been accepted in federal and state courtsas conclusive evidence innumerous cases.
The AAA processdetects the presenceof barium, antimony,copper and lead.
Barium andantimony arepresent in theprimers ofmost UnitedStates-madeand someEuropeanbrands ofammunition, while copper and lead particlesoriginate from cartridge cases and projectiles. Upon detonation of acartridge, these elements are deposited on the shooter’s hands. The AAA100kits are used to swab the entire surface of the suspect’s hands (see photos
left). The samples taken are then submitted for laboratory analysis.Due to the extreme sensitivity of atomic absorption analysis, the swabs,preservation tubes, nitric acid solution and container must be free fromcontamination.
SIRCHIE developed this kit to fulfill this requirement. The AAA100 kitcontains 10 individual test kits and the components of each are handled undercontrolled conditions to ensure absolute minimum contamination.
Specifically designed for those departments with access to scanning electronmicroscopy and atomic absorption analysis. The GRA series gunshot residueanalysis kits feature special alloy aluminum specimen mounts containing nobarium, lead or antimony—the most common constituents in primers. Simplyremove the cap with carbon-covered metal stub, apply to the questionedhand area and return the metal stub to its original location in the holder.Specific and sensitive collection for gunshot residue in an economicaland uncomplicated kit. Also included in the GRA100 are all the necessarycomponents to collect primer residue for atomic absorption analysis.

gUnPoWDER PARTIClE DETECTIon KITThe distance of a firearm discharge is an important factor in crime scenes.The close range firing in a suicide, murder or other crime involving firearmscan be determined by the detection of powder particles. A study of thescorching, blackening and powder patterns on the object or victim at thecrime scene can tell much about the distance and angle of firing. Dark ringsaround the bullet hole due to abrasion or dirt can be confused with charringand blackening resulting from discharge. Small gunpowder particles,however, may go unnoticed if a sensitive method is not used. Therefore, achemical test for the nitrite (burned particles) of gunpowder will be very usefulin a study of crime scenes involving firearm discharges—both on the victimand the criminal.
The two-step reaction involved in the formation of orange dye is known asdiazotization and coupling. It is this combination of reactions that is specific
for nitrite ions. The No. GPD100 kit provides a sensitive and specific method for the detection of nitrite particles at the crime scene. The sensitivity ofthe test eliminates the possibility of omission and error attending visualexamination of the crime scene. By utilizing this kit, it is possible to distinguish
between close-range and distant firearm discharge. Close-range firing andapproximate distances can be determined by the powder tattooing on thebody or clothing of the victim. After the development of nitrite particles, testpaper should be photographed for a permanent record of particle dispersion.

Components of the variousreagents are sealed in glassampoules to eliminate contaminationand assure unlimited storage life.Applicators are disposable. Because
of the specificity of the test, onlyminute quantities are required
for identification and stains up to four years in age have respondedpositively. The contact transfertechnique is used to verify thepresence of semen eliminatingcontamination probability.
SEMInAl FlUID DISCHAPS™

form of packaging ensures againstcontamination of reagents, whileproviding test integrity.
Seminal Fluid —Te Acid Pospatase Test This test is considered to be the most conclusive, non-spermatozoa test forthe presence of semen. The content of this enzyme is from 20 to 400 timesgreater in human semen than in any other fluid. This fact makes it unlikely thatanother material would test positive and give false results.
The reagents for determining the presence of acid phosphatase in suspectedstains are sealed in glass ampoules to ensure their integrity and long life.Preliminary examination before testing should be accomplished withlongwave ultraviolet lights or an alternate light source such as BLUEMAXX™.
The reagents should not be applied directly to suspected stains, thuseliminating possible contamination in subsequent laboratory tests of therecovered evidence. The “contact” method, i.e., wetted filter paper is touchedto the suspect area and the reagentis then applied to the contact paperonly.

FoR DETECTIon oF blooD PRInTSIn most violent crimes, a profusion of blood is usually a result. Blood printscan be found on the weapon, floor, furniture and victim. In many instances,blood prints are not visible dueto background color or theweakness of the blood print itself.To render these latent bloodprints visible, the BT001 offersan extremely sensitive method
for detection and developmentof bloody prints on surfaces likeplastic, wood, coated papers,metal and glass. Latent bloodprints developed throughthe utilization of thesereagents are very clear andchemically stable.
Field tests of dried stains at the crime scene are often essential in locatingand making preliminary presumptive identification of blood. Through theutilization of various kits and materials manufactured by SIRCHIE, this initialtesting becomes a routine function for the investigator. Tests for identifyingblood are performed using a non-destructive technique that will not interferewith subsequent testing performed by the crime laboratory. The most widely
accepted field tests for blood involve three different chemical processes;phenolphthalein, leuco-malachite green and luminol. Each has its ownparticular characteristics.

lUMAVISon™ lUMInol CoMPAnIon IllUMInAToR KITSLuminol has proven its effectiveness at the crime scene for more than halfa century. This unmatched chemical formulation is the most effectivemethod for locating minute traces of blood—even after the crime scenehas been cleaned up.
The advantages of using Luminol are numerous: it is non-destructiveto subsequent DNA profiling; it is a relatively safe compound if usedaccording to directions; and it is simple to mix and apply. But theluminescence caused by Luminol, when it comes into contact with blood,must be viewed in near-total darkness.
Luminol creates luminescence as it oxidizes the iron component of blood.Weak stains produce weak luminescence, so the darker the area, the easierit will be to view this phenomenon. The darkened area, however, makes itextremely difficult to see what you are doingor where you are spraying.
LumaVision™ is the answer to a CSI’s dream!Why? Because this little dynamo uses RED, not white light, and red light sharpens
night vision. When using LumaVision™,your eyes adjust to the darkness and whenluminescence occurs, you see it immediately.
The next step is to photograph it. Set yourtripod mounted camera over top of theluminescence, check the settings, turn off theLumaVision™, and snap away.
The LumaVision™ features 6 powerful LightEmitting Diodes (LEDs) driven by 3 AA-typealkaline batteries. The light offers bright,medium and low intensity settings as wellas fast, medium and slow strobe effect. A
