This is a fast, reliable field test for detection of trace nitrates found in gunpowder. When a weapon is fired, gunpowder is blown back in the direction of the shooter and trace amounts of these residues are deposited on the shooter's firing hand. Developed in a simple-to-use pouch format, it can be deployed without any specialized training or equipment and results appear in seconds. Complete, easy-to-use.

Our Gunpowder Particle Detection Kit provides all of the chemical reagents and supplies required to perform a very sensitive test to detect and visualize the nitrites contained in these minute powder particles
