M-Vac Systems

Amazing press release from Flagler County Sheriff’s Office!

The Flagler County Sheriff’s Office has added cutting-edge forensic DNA collection technology to its Crime Scene Investigations Unit with the addition of the M-Vac Forensic DNA Collection System.

The M-Vac System is a wet-vacuum based forensic DNA collection device. Using a sterile solution and vacuum to dislodge and collect DNA material for processing, the M-Vac can produce DNA profiles in situations where traditional methods such as swabbing and cutting have failed to produce viable results. The device can be used on almost any surface and can capture DNA material on porous, rough, or textured surfaces that are often difficult, if not impossible, to reach using other methods. It is also scalable and can cover larger surface areas, typically collecting more DNA material than other methods.

The M-Vac’s ability to capture a large amount of DNA material from a variety of surfaces, even when other DNA methods have yielded inconclusive or only partial profiles, makes it ideal for use in cases that have stalled or gone cold due to lack of evidence.

“We’re always seeking to be at the forefront of technology, and having this DNA collection method in our crime lab will allow us to improve our capability to solve crimes,” said Sheriff Rick Staly. “This device has helped agencies across the country solve crimes that were otherwise unsolvable, so it will be especially valuable for our Cold Case Unit detectives to work with our crime scene investigators as we seek to bring closure to some of our longest-running cases. If I was a murderer or ra**st of a cold case in Flagler County, I would be very worried. The evidence is closing in to get you.”

The M-Vac is the latest technology implemented in the FCSO Crime Lab under Sheriff Staly to locate evidence faster and increase the solvability of cases. In 2024, FCSO added the Arrowhead Forensics Full Spectrum Imaging System II to capture fingerprints and biological evidence that were previously undetectable.

National Police Week is a reminder that the law enforcement community stands together through grief, remembrance and service.

This week, we honor the fallen officers whose sacrifice will never be forgotten and the families who continue to keep their memories alive. We also recognize the officers who continue to serve their communities each day, carrying that legacy forward. https://trib.al/5TAYDg3

We are honored to carry the M-Vac forensic DNA collection system as a premier product!

There is no other system commercially available that comes close to its ability to collect DNA material from rough and porous surfaces.

If you have a cold case, or even a case that has stalled due to a lack of DNA evidence, then the M-Vac Systems is your best bet in obtaining it!

Thousands of difficult cases have been solved using the M-Vac, so effectiveness of the wet-vacuum technique is no longer in question.

All we need to do is determine if it’s right for YOUR case!

We are praying for the Anderson County Sheriff’s deputy who was injured in a shooting on I-85 this afternoon.

The deputy is alive and has been airlifted to Greenville Memorial Hospital. SLED is actively investigating.

Our law enforcement officers risk their lives every day. We owe everything to them.
