Large EVA-Base Shed Cell Collector: Forensic Sampling

Posted on by
The large shed cell collector with EVA base is a forensic tool for wide-area sampling, using a flexible EVA base to recover shed cells from large surfaces efficiently.

Core Content

  • Design: Spacious textured sampling surface + lightweight EVA base (flexible to fit curved/large areas like furniture, vehicle seats).
  • Usage: Press EVA base firmly on target area; glide in overlapping strokes; transfer cells to collection card/tube.

Key Features

  • Wide sampling area: Covers 20-30 cm² per use, cutting time for large-surface evidence.
  • EVA base advantage: Flexible yet durable, maintains contact pressure on uneven surfaces.
  • High cell yield: Textured surface traps more shed cells than small collectors for large traces.
  • Forensic-ready: Sterile packaging, compatible with DNA extraction workflows.

Application Scope

  • Crime scenes: Large surfaces (car interiors, sofas, floors) for shed epithelial/blood cells.
  • Mass casualty events: Sampling large personal items or debris for victim identification.
  • Property crimes: Wide-area evidence on stolen furniture, electronics casings.
