Sci K9

Created for the US Army and designed by canine trainers and scientists, the TADD® containment system can bring your canine training to the next level.

What is the TADD® containment system?
Most simply, it’s a container that lets the odor of your training aid out, but not the training aid. But it’s way way more than that… Read below to see what the TADD® containment system is capable of and how it is revolutionizing scent detection training.

Design considerations ensure that all components of the TADD® containment system are:

  • NASA Outgassing Compliant* to be extremely low odor, so the only scent you train your dog on is the training aid
  • Inert and highly compatible with most training aids
  • Rugged enough for daily use and training
  • Capable of being decontaminated and deodorized of human scent or environmental odors

TADDS® Containment System Accessories

TADD® Jar Connector

Use this piece to join two TADD jars together and create an odor infusion chamber. Place your target odor in Jar 1 and your odor ab/ad-sorption material (filter paper, Getxent tubes, cotton, cloth, toothpicks, gauze, etc.) in Jar 2 to make your own training aids!

NOTE: this is a custom 3-D printed item and will have aesthetic imperfections associated with the printing process. It does not create an air- or water-tight seal and therefore we recommend the use of Parafilm if such a seal is desired.

TADD® Membrane Holder Protection Screen

Made out of a PTFE gasket and a food-grade stainless steel mesh screen, this product will protect your TADD's membrane and the membrane holder from collecting debris during buried hides and make cleanup a breeze!

TADD® Odor Restriction Caps (Set of 5)

The area of each opening increases or decreases by roughly an order of magnitude or factor of 10, excluding “High”. Use these to train your dog down to trace levels of detection. Trace = 2mm, Low = 20mm, Medium = 200mm, High = 500mm, Whole Cap for Blanks

Liquinox Cleaning Concentrate

Part of our scientifically-validated Detection Equipment Cleaning Kit (DECK), this Liquinox Critical Cleaning Liquid Detergent Concentrate is 45 mL PACKED with enough power to fill 10 bottles of 1% cleaning solution spray. This detergent is biodegradable, phosphate-free, interfering-residue free, and most importantly for canine scent detection work, this detergent cleans, removes odor, and does not leave behind an odor when you follow our cleaning protocols.

This item comes shipped in a 50mL stand-up conical tube inside a poly bag with an absorbent material and instructions for making the 1% working solution.

Whatman Paper
(Pack of 100 Pieces)

Whatman 1004-050 Filter Circles, 50mm Dia, Grade 4, 100/pk
(PN: 1004-050)

Suggestions:

● Use a sheet of this paper to absorb odor passively ("odor soak"). These training aids can then be hidden, left behind, or cut into 1/2, 1/4 and 1/8 pieces.

● I like to put a sheet of Whatman Paper on the top of my membrane holder while my TADD is closed and not in use. Then, when I go to train, I have two training aids, the TADD and an odor soak paper that I can use in another scenario.

Metallized Odor Barrier Bags (15 bags)

Set of 15 anti-contamination, odor-barrier, stand-up bags for TADDs or training aid sample storage. Each bag is made from non-permeable, metallized material with a resealable double ziplock-type opening that can withstand hundreds of re-sealing applications. These bags have a durable bottom gusset that allow them to stand on their own when filled. Colors may vary.

Did you know that many of the mylar odor bags you buy online do not have a metal layer? Without that all important MET PET (Metallized Polyester) layer in between the LDPE (low density polyethylene) and EVOH (ethyl vinyl alcohol), you won't get an odor barrier bag. We do the research, sourcing, and testing so you don't have to!
