Garvit® Gun Shot Residue (GSR) Screening and Detection Kit

Garvit® Gun Shot Residue (GSR) Screening and Detection Kit is a specialized forensic investigation tool designed for the rapid screening of evidence in firearm-related cases. It is widely used in crime scene investigations, ballistic examinations and forensic laboratories to help determine possible involvement of a person in a firing incident or proximity to a discharged weapon. When a firearm is discharged, microscopic gunshot residue particles are released and commonly seen to settle on nearby surfaces such as hands, clothing, face and surrounding objects. The Garvit® GSR Kit enables forensic experts to screen these samples for the presence of Lead and Nitrate ions, which are key chemical indicators associated with gunshot residue. Through identifying these, the kit assists investigators in assessing whether an individual has fired a weapon or has been in close contact with a recently discharged firearm. It provides valuable preliminary forensic evidence that supports further detailed laboratory analysis and investigative decision-making. The Garvit® Gun Shot Residue Screening and Detection Kit is an essential tool in modern forensic science, offering reliable screening capability for crime scene evaluation and strengthening evidence-based firearm investigations.
