BLUESTAR® FORENSIC Performances

Performances on old blood

BLUESTAR® FORENSIC has proved its detecting power on very old blood. So far, the oldest blood discovered by BLUESTAR® FORENSIC was that of two confederate soldiers that were killed at the Battle of Gettysburg. This decisive battle of the American Civil War was fought in July 1863, more than 142 years before the reagent was applied !

Not only BLUESTAR® FORENSIC can help investigators to solve crimes weeks or months after it was perpetrated, it can also take us back to the past decades or even centuries and give us additional clues to historical events.

Read the story of this discovery as told by the Emmitsburg Area Historical Society.
