BlueStar Forensic Training Tablets — 4 Applications
Affordable training-only version of BlueStar Forensic for instructing crime scene technicians in chemiluminescent blood detection. Destroys DNA — not for use in real investigations.
Affordable Training Format for Technician Instruction
BlueStar Forensic Training Tablets — 4 Applications is a version of BlueStar Forensic specifically designed for training purposes. It offers an affordable alternative to standard operational tablets and is ideal for training crime scene technicians in the detection of blood traces using chemiluminescence.
The packaging and format are identical to the regular BlueStar Forensic Tablets, with four pairs of tablets per box, and the product reacts in exactly the same way as the operational version for training demonstration purposes.
Important: this training version destroys DNA and must not be used in real investigations. Use only for instructional and demonstration purposes with non-evidentiary samples.

Intended Use
Defined scope of application for the BlueStar Forensic Full Kit in professional forensic and crime scene settings.
Training & Instructional Use Only
BlueStar Forensic Training Tablets — 4 Applications is intended exclusively for training crime scene technicians and forensic personnel in chemiluminescent blood detection technique. It is not intended, and must not be used, for actual forensic casework or evidence examination.
This product requires a spray bottle (not supplied) to prepare and apply the working solution. It is intended for use in supervised training environments by qualified instructors.
Scope & Limitations
Indicated for: Screening of surfaces including metal, plastic, and fabric for the presence of blood, including washed, diluted, or aged bloodstains.
Species specificity: BlueStar Forensic reacts with blood broadly and is not species-specific. Confirmation of human origin requires a follow-up immunochromatographic test, with final confirmation conducted in a forensic laboratory.
Not indicated for: Clinical diagnostic use, or as a standalone confirmatory test for human blood. Certain food residues or chemical substances may produce false positives; appropriate training is required for correct interpretation. For forensic use only.
Instructions for Use
The BlueStar Forensic Full Kit follows a straightforward preparation and application workflow suited to crime scene conditions.
Reagent Preparation
Dissolve one pair of training tablets (white and beige) in a 125 mL sprayer (not supplied). For larger demonstration volumes, multiple tablet pairs may be combined up to a 500 mL total volume.
Spray Head Setup
Screw the adjustable spray head onto the bottle and set the spray pattern as required for the area being examined.
Application & Observation
Spray the prepared solution onto the surface under examination. A positive chemiluminescent reaction produces a bright blue glow at sites of blood deposition, visible without requiring total darkness. The reaction is stable and long-lasting, allowing time for observation and photography.
Documentation & Follow-Up Testing
Photograph and document luminescent areas per laboratory SOP. Where confirmation of human origin is required, proceed with a validated immunochromatographic rapid test, followed by final confirmatory analysis in a forensic laboratory.
Applications
Forensic settings where the BlueStar Forensic Full Kit is used for bloodstain detection and crime scene examination.
Crime Scene Investigation
Detection of latent or cleaned bloodstains at suspected crime scenes, including surfaces that have been washed, painted over, or otherwise concealed.
Violent Crime & Homicide Casework
Screening of scenes, vehicles, and exhibits for trace blood evidence in assault, homicide, and other violent crime investigations.
Cold Case Re-examination
Re-screening of archived scenes or exhibits where bloodstain evidence may have degraded, been cleaned, or was not detected using earlier methods.
Forensic Laboratory Training
Use of BlueStar Forensic Training Tablets to train personnel in distinguishing true blood reactions from potential false positives prior to live casework deployment.
Vehicle & Weapon Examination
Screening of vehicle interiors, weapons, and other evidentiary items for trace bloodstains not visible to the naked eye.
DNA Evidence Triage
Identification of probative bloodstain locations to guide targeted DNA sampling, since the reagent is non-destructive to DNA.
Key Benefits
Stronger Luminescence
Longer-Lasting Reaction
High Sensitivity
Total Darkness Not Required
No Additional Equipment Needed
Fully Soluble
Stable Over Time
Non-Destructive to DNA
