Abstract

The present invention is a hand-held device for determining the presence of a chemical on a subject. The device has a housing with a handle having a proximal end and a distal end, a battery pack removably connected to the distal end of said handle, and a sampling interface, integrally connected to the proximal end of the handle on said housing. The sampling interface has raised surface areas that allow for agitation of the subject surface to ensure that a maximum sample portion is obtained. The device also includes a disposable cartridge removably connected to the housing at the proximal end, a sampling sub-system operably connected to the sampling interface, a suction inlet for collecting samples into the detection system, a dispensing sub- system operably connected to the sampling sub-system, and a color detection sub-system operably connected to the sampling sub-system.
