DEXSIL Lead Test is a sensitive field test for paint or other non-porous surfaces suspected to be contaminated with lead. DEXSIL Lead Test can be used to check for lead on painted surfaces, objects exposed to lead-containing dust, alloys with traces of lead, and any surface that will leach lead into the environment. Each swab is a self-contained single use test configured for ease of use and precise delivery of the test reagents. Reagents are premeasured in crushable ampules contained in a plastic tube and safety sleeve. To ensure a long shelf life, the reagents are sealed in separate ampules and only activated at the time of the test. Packaged in a 2 swab pack. Engineered to meet or exceed the most conservative industry standards for sensitivity and specificity for a surface-wipe lead test kit, the DEXSIL Lead Test system was developed using rigorous laboratory protocols.
