SwabTek’s Dry Explosive Test Kit is designed to presumptively identify precursors used in the manufacture of improvised explosives.
Since the kit uses a treated cotton swab, it can be used to test for explosives residue and precursor material on any surface without a visible sample. This allows the user to test any surface suspected to have come in contact with explosives material, including chemicals, devices, tabletops and hands.
Simple, intuitive and safe, the test contains no acids, carcinogens or toxic liquids — eliminating any potential risk to the user during testing. SwabTek's dry-paper technology allows for seamless integration into existing screening procedures in any environment, from airports and stadiums to border crossings and even mailrooms.
Samples may be commercial grade explosives that are generally stabilized as firm wax like solid or in sheet, cord form and in Home Made Explosives (HME) that may be in powder, paste, liquefied or combinations of all three. All samples will vary in color and odor.

All tests are presumptive. Results indicate that a target may be present and require laboratory confirmation. Follow the product instructions.
Good questions.
Straight answers.
Understand the tool before you use it.
Explore the resourcesWhat does a presumptive test tell me?
It provides an initial indication that a target substance may be present in the sample tested. It is not a conclusive identification. Follow the product instructions and obtain laboratory confirmation.
Do these kits test a person?
No. These kits screen collected substances and residue on items or surfaces. They do not establish whether a person has used a drug or is impaired.
How do I choose the right test?
Start with the substance you need to screen for, then choose an available pack size. Each kit has its own targets and instructions. For larger orders, ask the SwabTek team about custom bulk pricing.
Can I order for a whole department?
Yes. Professional kits are available in multi-test packs through the SwabTek store. For a department, school or security operation, request a quote for the products and quantities your team needs.
