Operating out of a state-of-the-art facility in Quantico, Virginia, the Lab’s scientific experts and special agents travel the world on assignment, using science and technology to protect the nation and support law enforcement, intelligence, military, and forensic science partners.

Whether it’s examining DNA to help determine guilt or innocence, analyzing the fingerprints left at a crime scene, or linking exploded bomb fragments to terrorists, the men and women of the FBI Laboratory are dedicated to using the rigors of science to solve cases and prevent acts of crime and terror.

This is accomplished by developing, maintaining, and executing the FBI’s ability to evaluate, collect, examine, and analyze CBRN materials and related evidence.]]> 2018-02-07 16:46:30 UTC https://padlet.com/komlan_amoussou20/5tyo5z5ijlij/wish/229193284 THE TEAM komlan_amoussou20 https://padlet.com/komlan_amoussou20/5tyo5z5ijlij/wish/229194296 2018-02-07 16:47:56 UTC https://padlet.com/komlan_amoussou20/5tyo5z5ijlij/wish/229194296 komlan_amoussou20 https://padlet.com/komlan_amoussou20/5tyo5z5ijlij/wish/229197182
  • Chemical threats, including chemical warfare agents (CWAs), such as nerve, blood, or blister agents; this can also include other chemical hazards, such as toxic industrial chemicals (TICs) and toxic industrial materials (TIMs), that can be used as weapons.
  • Biological threats, including, but not limited to, toxins and microbial agents, such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi that can cause disease in humans, animals, and plants. Bioinformatic data can also be analyzed to detect and characterize engineered or modified biological functions.
  • Radiological/nuclear threats, addressing radiological and nuclear materials and associated devices, both intact and post detonation/dispersion.
  • Specialty examinations, such as:
  • Carbon-14 age dating of human remains
  • Plant, animal, insect, and seed identification
  • Genetically modified organisms

    The SRAU maintains formalized contractual partnerships with key laboratories, called partner laboratories. These laboratories, within the U.S. Government, academia, and the private sector, provide critical scientific capabilities, secure facilities, and experts to support examinations involving hazardous materials. Working with its partner laboratories, the SRAU reviews and exercises existing protocols for hazardous materials, participates in the research and the development of new technologies to address capability gaps, and collaborates with CBRN experts in defining best practices for the collection and forensic analyses of CBRN materials.

    The SRAU is committed to the training and education of internal and external counterparts. The unit provides specialized training related to hazardous materials and CBRN threats to those who are involved in the response to such events, including federal, state, and local entities. The unit also promotes the continuing education and training of its staff to enhance and broaden SRAU capabilities and expertise.

The HEAT program provides traditional and computer-related forensic examinations on evidence contaminated with CBRN materials; no other forensic laboratory offers this unique scientific and technological capability. The HEAT program is composed of experienced, highly specialized, trained forensic examiners who are deployed to conduct their analyses in CBRN containment laboratories. The SRAU maintains and operates HEAT in accordance with the quality management system of the FBI Laboratory.
