Description
The cocaine wipe test for surfaces allows cocaine residues on objects and contact surfaces to be identified quickly and easily. Simply wipe the chosen area with the test wipe. If cocaine traces are present on the surface, the wipe changes to purple-blue or lilac-blue.
The result becomes visible within a short time and can be read directly on site. No analyser or additional test fluids are required. This makes the cocaine wipe test suitable for private use as well as for companies, security services, institutions and events.
