The three most common methods to detect chemical agents are: M9 CHEMICAL AGENT DETECTOR PAPER - The most widely used method of detecting liquid chemical warfare agents. M9 paper indicates the presence of a nerve agent or a blister agent by turning a pink, red, reddish brown, purple color. It does not identify which agent gives the positive reading. M8 CHEMICAL AGENT DETECTOR PAPER - This method is also used to test for the presence of liquid chemical agents. It can detect the presence of liquid chemical agents, which M9 paper cannot. When the paper touches a G-Class nerve agent it will turn a gold or yellow color, and will turn an Olive or Verdana Green color when it touches VX agent. If it turns red or purple, then it has come in contact with blister agents. M256A1 CHEMICAL AGENT DETECTOR KIT - Portable kit that detects nerve gas, mustard gas, and cyanide. This kit contains a package of M8 paper, detailed instructions, and a vapor sampler (12 enzymatic tickets that contain laboratory filter paper for detecting vapors). The vapor sampler uses wet chemistry technology in which ampules containing different substrates are crused so that the liquids interact with strips of filter paper, chromatographic media, and glass fiber filter. The reactions cause a color change alerting the user to the presence of a chemical agent. These reactions usually take 15 minutes.
