TruNarc™ 携帯型麻薬分析計

In Raman spectroscopy, an unknown sample of material is illuminated with monochromatic (single wavelength or single frequency) laser light, which can be absorbed, transmitted, reflected, or scattered by the sample. Light scattered from the sample is due to either elastic collisions of the light with the sample's molecules (Rayleigh scatter) or inelastic collisions (Raman scatter). Whereas Rayleigh scattered light has the same frequency (wavelength) of the incident laser light, Raman scattered light returns from the sample at different frequencies corresponding to the vibrational frequencies of the bonds of the molecules in the sample.

The TruNarc Handheld Narcotics Analyzer has a 3.7 V internal rechargeable battery pack that lasts up to 10 hours.

Yes. Because the TruNarc Handheld Narcotics Analyzer employs non-destructive, non-contact Raman technology, it can scan directly through sealed glass and plastic containers. This feature helps reduce exposure to ensure officer safety, and is particularly useful for preserving evidence.

Depending on jurisdiction, TruNarc Handheld Narcotics Analyze test results may be allowed at preliminary hearings.

The TruNarc analyzer captures all scan results, including time-and-date stamp and system selfchecks to help expedite prosecution. Once a substance is analyzed, full results are automatically stored for reporting and evidence submission. Rapid results combined with automated reports can streamline the path to prosecution, reducing administrative burden and dramatically impacting the time and expense of drug-related arrests.

Raman spectroscopy is best used as a primary analysis technique for sealed containers, aqueous solutions, and white and light powders. The TruNarc Handheld Narcotics Analyzer also uses a Type H kit to analyze substances with high fluorescence.
