Detecting Liquid Explosives - Is a Solution Imminent?

Scientists say they have developed a quick technique for detecting liquids that could be used as explosives, according to the BBC. If commercialised, the new method could potentially end restrictions on liquids carried onto commercial airlines. The light-based approach uses cheap components and can reliably identify a range of liquids in just one-fifth of a second, the German scientists say.

With terrorism risk high on the agenda of many companies, ARC will be conducting its first Countering Hostile Reconnaissance and Countering Terrorism Course, 24-28 May 2010. The course is led by two UK police-trained counter-terrorism security advisors, who have operational experience in this field both in the UK and overseas. This is a rare, not-to-be-missed opportunity to study with experienced practitioners who have first-hand experience of terrorism reconnaissance and attack tactics.
