DetectaChem and Arlington Bomb Squad Team Up with Local and Government Law Enforcement Agencies to Supplement Public Safety
Houston, TX. -  Tuesday, February 01, 2011 - 

DetectaChem, a supplier of hand-held explosive detection solutions, today announced that its Seeker XDU is being used by the Arlington Bomb Squad to detect for explosives during Super Bowl XLV, on Feb. 6, taking place at Dallas Cowboys Stadium in Arlington Texas.

To ensure the highest level of public safety for the more than 100,000 attendees at Super Bowl XLV, the Arlington Bomb Squad is deploying the latest technology to monitor and manage security, including potential terrorist activity. DetectaChem's Seeker XDU System performs a key role in aiding first responders with threats involving potential explosives throughout and around the venue.

The Seeker XDU is a compact, lightweight, highly portable, hand-held device for detecting trace levels of explosives. Unlike other competing devices that are less portable and unreliable,  the Seeker XDU technology allows users to quickly identify the presence of explosives through the use of cutting edge diagnostic swipe collection cards and the system's automated optical evaluation technology.

"DetectaChem is proud to be assisting the Arlington Bomb Squad for the security of Super Bowl XLV, a worldwide event," said Mark Kisner, CEO of Houston-based DetectaChem.  "The need for reliable explosives detection that is deployable as a portable device for on-site use by Federal, State and Local agencies is becoming more evident every day. The Seeker is poised to be an essential tool in the war on terror as a trace detector of explosives."
