ECT-99

Securesearch, Inc. manufactures a chemical spray for the surface detection of the presence of two explosives that are frequently involved in criminal bombings. If the explosive has been handled by a person or has been transferred to a surface that the person has handled it is detectable on the surface or on hands by a color-test spray.  

The two explosives this spray can detect are TNT (Trinitrotoluene) and DNT (Dinitrotoluene). The spray is a clear and colorless liquid mist that is applied to the hands or suspect transfer surface by means of a pump atomizer bottle. There is no gas propellant in the bottle that may contaminate the atmosphere or to leak out with resultant loss of pressure. The container becomes pressurized by several strokes to the cap. The fluid is sprayed by finger pressure applied to a pump button on the top of the dispensing bottle. The spray mist is directed to a surface that you suspect may be contaminated by trace amounts of explosive. The clear liquid reacts instantaneous with either of the two explosives it is designed to detect.

TNT produces a red-brown color indication wherever the spray mist contacts it on the suspect surface.

DNT produces a blue color reaction with the detection chemical wherever the spray mist contacts it on the suspect surface.

Over time, the color intensity will tend to fade on the surface where the detection chemical has been applied.

The spray mist should not be applied to the eyes or sensitive mucous membranes, as it is mildly irritating. If applied to the hands or other skin contact occurs it should be washed off with soap and plenty of water. If it accidentally is sprayed into the eyes they should be flushed out with plenty of clear cold water and medical attention should be sought. If the product is ingested, medical attention should also be immediately sought. A material safety data sheet (MSDS) is available for this product. Chemical formulations are being developed to detect other explosives and related compounds.
