The combination of a longwave and a shortwave ultraviolet lamp makes these kits very useful, both inside and outside the police station or laboratory.
For the various methods of thief detection by means of thief traps, the longwave lamps are most useful, together with the various fluorescent materials which are included in these kits. The shortwave lamp aids in the identification of hundreds of inorganic substances.
For thief detection, inspection of documents (forgeries and checks, bank notes), analyses of organic and inorganic materials, and the investigation of sex crimes (semen stains), the ultraviolet identification kit is almost indispensable.  |
