Abstract: A safety fuse system includes a safety fuse including a fuse casing having a bottom surface and opposing end surfaces at each end of the bottom surface; a fuse element inside the fuse casing; a pair of electrical contacts connected to the fuse element, the electrical contacts extending through openings in the bottom surface of the fuse casing to an exterior of the fuse casing; the openings being located at a distance from the opposing end surfaces so that the electrical contacts are remote from the opposing ends; a fuse holder including a fuse holder casing having a top surface, the top surface including apertures for receiving the electrical contacts of the safety fuse, the apertures being in alignment with the safety fuse openings when the safety fuse is engaged with the fuse holder; metal contacts within the fuse holder casing for receiving the electrical contacts.

Abstract: A swab is impregnated with a test reagent such that a test for a specific substance can be effected by rubbing the impregnated swab over the surface to be tested and then viewing the swab for a reagent reaction. The swab may have a hollow stem, and within the hollow stem is a cartridge within another cartridge. An activator solution is in one of the cartridges and a reagent is in another of the cartridges. A method for testing for a substance includes impregnating a swab, and rubbing the swab over a surface suspected of containing the substance. If the substance is present in the surface, a reaction with the substance produces an easily detectable color on the swab tip.
