Title: Terminal Learning Objective


1
Terminal Learning Objective
  • Upon completion of this lesson, you will
    understand the procedures to detect chemical
    agents using M8 or M9 detector paper.

2
Learning Objective A
  • This topic will address how to use M8 detector
    paper to identify chemical agents.

3
M8 Detector Paper
  • In plastic bag inside chemical agent detector
    kits (M256/M256A1)
  • There are 25 sheets per booklet
  • Detects liquid nerve and blister agents

Color Changes
  • Yellow-gold indicates G (nerve) agent
  • Red-pink indicates H (blister) agent
  • Dark green indicates V (nerve) agent
  • If any other color or no color change, liquid
    cannot be identified

5
False Negatives
  • WARNINGWhen conducting agent tests at night,
    remove any colored lens because it may provide a
    false negative response.

6
False Positives
  • WARNINGSome decontaminants give false positive
    readings. The M8 paper may indicate positive
    results if used in an area where decontaminants
    have been used.

7
When to Use M8 Paper
  • See a liquid that might be a chemical agent
  • Observe any color change on M9 detector paper
  • Notice chemical agent symptoms in soldiers

8
Procedures to Use M8 Paper
  • Immediately assume MOPP4
  • Locate liquid contamination
  • Remove the M8 detector paper from mask carrier
  • Prepare M8 detector paper

9
Procedures to Use M8 Paper
  • Blot (DO NOT RUB) M8 paper on suspected liquid
    agent
  • Observe paper for a color change
  • Compare color on paper to color chart in booklet

9

10
Procedures to Use M8 Paper
  • Close/store booklet of M8 detector paper
  • Remain in MOPP4
  • Use other chemical agent detectors to verify test
    results
  • Report test results to supervisor

Learning Objective B
  • This objective will address how to detect
    chemical agents using M9 detector paper.

12
M9 Detector Paper
  • In a dispenser roll
  • Detects chemical agents
  • Cannot be used to identify chemical agents
  • Used in all types of weather/temperatures
  • Sticks to clothing, vehicles, other equipment

12

13
Procedures to Use M9 Paper
  • Attach M9 detector paper to protective clothing
  • Wrap M9 paper around upper arm
  • Wrap M9 paper around wrist of jacket
  • Wrap M9 paper around ankle just above boot

13

14
Overlap of M9 Paper
  • CAUTION Leave at least one inch of overlap when
    placing paper on MOPP gear to minimize the
    difficulties experienced while conducting MOPP
    gear exchange.

14

15
Procedures to Use M9 Paper
  • Attach M9 paper to surfaces most likely to
    encounter chemical agents
  • Note any color changes on M9 paper
  • Constantly monitor M9 paper for any color change
  • If color changes mask, give the alarm, decon
    (as necessary), assume MOPP4
