Expray is a unique, aerosol-based field test kit for the detection and identification of Group A explosives (e.g. TNT, TNB, etc.), Group B explosives (e.g. Semtex H, RDX, C4, etc.) and compounds containing inorganic nitrates that are used in improvised explosives (e.g. ANFO). Expray is commonly used as a pre-blast, analytical tool, post-blast investigative tool, screen against potential terrorist elements and as a technical evaluation test in soil remediation on hazardous material "clean-up" sites. When used as a post-blast investigative tool, the product is field proven to speed up crucial investigations. The level of sensitivity (20 nanograms) surpasses that of other currently available products. The testing process is fast and efficient. No glass ampoules, spatulas or waiting period required. Results appear in seconds. No additional tools or equipment required. The identification/detection process requires no special training and testing can be performed "on the spot".
