http://www.thermoscientific.com/en/product/trunarc-handheld-narcotics-analyzer.html Kirsten Barr discusses the Thermo Scientific TruNarc analyzer: a powerful, handheld narcotics lab which is capable of detecting narcotics, stimulants, depressants, hallucinogens and analgesics using Raman spectroscopy. In a single test, the TruNarc can identify dozens of narcotics and give definitive results without user interpretation. This instrument can detect common drugs of abuse as well as cutting agents, precursors and emergent experimental chemicals to keep law enforcement ahead of the curve. Non-destructive, non-contact sampling protects evidence and facilitates the preservation of the crime scene. TruNarc works through glass and plastic, and boasts a 10 hour charge life from its 3.7V battery pack. Data can be exported as CSV, excel, PDF, or SPC, and the device can be configured either as "pay-per-scan" or "unlimited."
