FTA® MICRO CARD FTA® Micro Card rapidly inactivates organisms including bloodborne pathogens and prevents the growth of bacteria and other microorganisms. It allows you to capture nucleic acids in one easy step. Recommended when only one sample is needed, the FTA® Micro Card is the smallest FTA® Card available. Each card includes one sample area for application of up to 125µl whole blood or 25µl plant homogenate per card. An integral cover sheet protects the card and allows it to stand on its own while drying. FTA® Micro Cards offer one sample area for application of up to 125µL whole blood or 25µL plant homogenate per card. Simply apply your sample to the FTA® card. 100/Pack.

FTA® CLASSIC CARD A-WB120205 NON-INDICATING

FTA cards contain chemicals that lyse cells, denature proteins, and protect nucleic acids from nucleases, oxidative, and UV damage. FTA cards rapidly inactivate organisms, including bloodborne pathogens, and prevent the growth of bacteria and other microorganisms. They allow you to capture nucleic acids in one easy step. Simply apply your sample to the FTA card. Cell membranes and organelles are lysed and the released nucleic acids are entrapped in the fibers of the matrix. The nucleic acids remain immobilized and are stabilized for transport, immediate processing, or long-term room temperature storage. Since captured nucleic acids are stabilized, FTA cards facilitate sample collection in remote locations and simplify sample transport. For example, you can collect samples in the field without worrying about immediate refrigeration. Ship your samples back to the laboratory without expensive special handling or dry ice and process at your convenience. There are four sample areas for application of up to 500µl whole blood or 100µl plant homogenate per card. Convenient for protocols that require different locations for testing and archiving samples. Different samples can be processed independently. A-WB120205 Classic Card, 4 spot, Pack of 100 ������������������������������������������������������������ $489.00

The new Full Spectrum COLOR Imaging System (FSC) is the most advanced forensic image capturing system in the world. The FSC features a patented 16 MP digital camera with 78mm UV lens. Now, for the first time, the new FSC can capture an image in FULL COLOR! With over 16 megapixels of resolution and sensitivity from 254 nm to 1100 nm, the FSC can easily capture a full handprint at 1000 ppi (pixels per inch), and micro evidence up to 3,500 ppi.

EXHIBIT

A

Images of latent prints on a credit card were developed with cyanoacrylate & revealed using a 254nm UV lamp & specialty UV filter (both included with the Workstation).

The evidence is a lightly fumed credit card with complex background.

High contrast prints are revealed & background is dropped. Process time took less than 2 minutes.

EXHIBIT

B

High resolution images can be captured in color and black and white making photographing evidence such as altered documents, urine, semen, saliva, blood, GSR, footwear, fumed prints, dye-stained prints (and more) seamless and consistent.

Evidence can be captured in full color at high resolution.

The same evidence can be captured seamlessly in shortwave UV with the same high quality.

WHY BLUE?

The blue 445 nm wavelength has not only been proven useful in the detection and documentation of biological and trace evidence, but can also be useful in chemical processing. When searching for biological trace evidence or physiological stains, the blue 445 nm laser offered in the Dual77 will fluoresce biological evidence such as urine, semen, saliva, and sweat, that other wavelengths (such as the green 520 nm wavelength) cannot detect. Detection of this biological evidence is enabled by the intensity that is unique to laser light. This intensity is often necessary for the documentation of such evidence through photography in conjunction with various barrier filters. Though it excels in this area of biological detection, the blue 445 nm wavelength is also extremely useful in detecting other types of trace evidence. lt provides fluorescence for latent fingerprint powders and a variety of chemical methods such as: Ardrox, Basic Yellow, MRM10, Tieg’s Powder, RAY, MBD, and RAM.

PROCESSING TIP

A LASER FOR DNA? When searching for biological evidence in order to recover DNA, careful examination of every square inch of a piece of evidence is required. This means processing large pieces of evidence such as bed sheets and comforters can be a grueling task. But with a forensic laser, one or two passes over the whole thing can reveal even what would have been missed with careful conventional sweeps.

THIS ENABLES DNA TECHNICIANS TO QUICKLY LOCATE EVEN TRACE SAMPLES FOR EXTRACTION & ANALYSIS.

Semen on Black Fabric Blue 445nm Dual77 Laser Yellow Barrier Filter

The green 520 nm laser offered in the Dual77 enables investigators to not only process evidence, but also detect it, when paired with filters. Green lasers are often used in processing evidence such as latent fingerprints using fluorescent powders and established chemical methods. These various methods include: 1,2-Indanedione, Rhodamine 6G, MBD, RAM, DFO, Basic RED, Acid Yellow #7, and Lumicyano. With the help of a laser, treated prints are easily developed and documented using barrier filters. The 520 nm wavelength is also useful for more than just chemical processing and imagery. It can also be utilized in the search for trace evidence, detecting evidence such as shoeprints, hairs, fibers, and bone/tooth fragment. This versatility makes the green 520 nm extremely useful in both the lab and in the field.

The Dual 77 Pistol Grip Investigation Laser may be used for detecting and collecting DNA for identification purposes. This [develops] or [improves] the capability to analyze DNA for identification purposes by drastically improving the ability to detect biological samples. The blue 445 nm wavelength offered in the DUAL 77 laser is extremely effective at fluorescing serological stains, such as saliva, semen, and urine, which results in the ability to collect DNA. Lasers are more effective than alternate light sources (ALS) at fluorescing this evidence due to their extremely narrow bandwidth and focused power.

The Dual77 445 nm/520 nm Pistol Grip Investigation laser system is used to detect latent fingerprints, footprints, bone fragments, bodily fluids, chemically treated prints and more. During fluorescence examination, the investigator scans the diverging laser beam slowly across a surface, thus revealing the resultant evidence. The laser operates at a wavelength of 445 nm or at 520 nm with a maximum radiant power of 7 watts. Compact, lightweight design makes this a truly portable laser for both the scene and the lab.

SUSPECTED FENTANYL LABEL The following labels meet the recommendations set forth by the DEA in labeling collected fentanyl samples. The DEA’s recommendation for collection is to first store in an agency approved plain envelope. That envelope should be then be sealed with evidence tape, then labeled with a "Suspected Fentanyl" label. After labeling and sealing the first envelope, the initial envelope should then be placed in a second envelope, sealed and also labeled "Suspected Fentanyl". Labels come 250 per roll and are packaged in a protective plastic case with easy dispensing design.
