SMITHS DETECTION EXPANDS IONSCAN\u2122 600 CAPABILITIES TO DETECT SPICE<\/b><\/p>\n

EDGEWOOD, Md.–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nSmiths Detection, a leading threat detection and security technology company, announces that it has developed the capability to detect synthetic cannabinoids, commonly known as Spice or K2, with its IONSCAN 600 trace detection solution.\n<\/p>\n

\nThis development comes following an extensive R&D process and testing trials with major correctional institutions around the world and expands the IONSCAN 600<\/a> existing detection library of explosives and a wide range of narcotics, including various forms of fentanyl, cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, and THC. The IONSCAN 600 is also highly effective in finding narcotics that are concealed, such as those that have been liquefied and absorbed in paper.\n<\/p>\n

\nSpice is an emerging threat for law enforcement officials in prisons, jails, and other secure government facilities. These potent substances can cause life threatening health effects when consumed and pose detection challenges during conventional security screening.\n<\/p>\n

\nThis development is the latest from Smiths Detection who have invested heavily into the critical infrastructure market \u2013 which includes law enforcement, emergency responders, and security \u2013 to build a comprehensive portfolio of chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosive (CBRNE) detection and identification solutions.\n<\/p>\n

\nPhilo Daniel, Global Director of Urban Security at Smiths Detection commented, \u201cWe are very pleased by the release of this new detection capability. This new library has received a significant level of R&D investment and underwent extensive testing to ensure our customers have the very best information available to them to make critical decisions that protect public health, safety, and security.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nThe IONSCAN 600<\/a> is a portable, trace detector used around the globe at airports, ports and borders, prisons and defence facilities to accurately detect and identify a wide range of military, commercial and homemade explosives threats; and common illegal\/controlled narcotics.\n<\/p>\n
