About ROAR Particles

Roar Particles plc is dedicated to the research, development and manufacture of nanotechnology derived particles and services for forensics and counter terrorism. Utilising the latest technological advances, which were generated by Fred Rowell, Professor of Analytical Chemistry at The University of Sunderland, has led to the development of a range of stable silica nanoparticles which have been engineered at the nanoscale to produce a targeted set of properties suitable for a wide range of applications. This has involved not only incorporating a variety of dyes and other particles into the core particles, but also controlling the surface properties of the particles.

The initial sets of products are materials for latent fingerprint analysis for the enhanced identification of suspects. Future products under development include materials that enable enhanced information to be gathered from fingerprints to aid suspect elimination.

Our products and services will be applicable to:

Crime and Forensic Services world wide
Homeland Security and Counter-Terrorism
Immigration Screening
Employee Screening
Sports Testing markets
