					I did a PSA 
					test, but the test line is just barely visible.  Is 
					this a positive test? 
					According to the
					literature, there is a 90% 
					probability this is a true positive test.  However, 
					this is just academic and from a practical point of view, 
					the test result should be regarded as inconclusive.  
					This calls for further investigation, perhaps with a 
					different method of surveillance--for example, covert video.  
					In order to be certain that the stain contains semen, the 
					test line must be equal or greater in intensity to the 
					control line.  This represents a 100% probability that 
					the stain in fact contains semen.  Representative 
					results are shown below:

					I did an AP 
					test which came out POSITIVE, but the subsequent PSA test 
					was NEGATIVE.  Is 
					this a positive test? 
					This test is 
					presumptively positive for semen, but it doesn't prove 
					it's semen, since the PSA test was negative.  Therefore 
					the test should be regarded as inconclusive.  This test 
					result sometimes happens in cases where there is only a 
					trace of semen on the garment, and the AP test paper absorbs 
					it all, leaving nothing for the PSA strip to detect.  
					If you are suspicious that there is only a trace of semen 
					there, then do the PSA test first.  Using a Q-tip will 
					allow an AP test to be performed after a PSA test.  
					Keep in mind the AP test may be NEGATIVE even though the PSA 
					test is strongly POSITIVE, because the PSA test is 1000x 
					more sensitive than AP.  PSA is the definitive test for 
					semen, and the AP-PSA combination test is designed for 
					strong semen stains, where both tests will be strongly 
					positive. 
					How long can 
					semen in stains be detected? 
					For years, but 
					the long answer is:  acid phosphatase 
					(AP) can be detected in semen which has been discharged up 
					to 17 hours after intercourse, and prostate specific antigen 
					(PSA) for up to 36 hours.  Once semen has been 
					discharged, then its chemical components become stable for 
					years.  The explanation for this is that both AP and 
					PSA are proteins, and must have a certain three-dimensional 
					configuration to work.  The vagina presents a hostile 
					chemical environment however, and rapidly denatures seminal 
					proteins in a fashion similar to egg whites when they are 
					cooked.  After discharge, the residual non-denatured 
					proteins are no longer exposed to a hostile environment, and 
					there is virtually no time limit for their detection.  
					PSA actually has been detected in semen stains over 30 years 
					old.  Items tested more closely to the time of 
					suspected intercourse give a more strongly positive test. 
					What does the 
					shipping box look like? 
					Shipment is 
					discreet in a generic, nondescript container.  The return 
					address likewise is nondescript.  If we said more about 
					it, then everyone would know, wouldn't they?  The charge will show 
					up on your credit card statement as "PAYPAL *PRIVAFONE." 
					How do I 
					order? 
					You may order 
					online using our PayPal shopping cart, by phone, or by sending a check 
					to PrivaFone, Inc. using our contact information.  
					Institutional customers may send a purchase order by email 
					or fax. 
					How fast will 
					it get here? 
					Standard 
					shipping is by Priority Mail® (2-3 business days).  
					U.S. customers may opt for Express Mail®, which 
					takes 1-2 
					business days.  International shipping is by Express 
					Mail® 
					International (3-5 business days) or Global Express 
					Guaranteed® 
					(1-3 business days).  Global Express Guaranteed® 
					is equivalent to FedEx, 
					but at half the price. 
					What if I 
					don't want my order shipped to my home? 
					U.S. customers 
					may have their order sent to a FedEx Office and held for 
					pick-up.  To exercise this option, choose Express as 
					your shipping option and input the address of the FedEx 
					office as the shipping address in the PayPal shopping cart.  
					Orders will be sent by FedEx 2nd Day Air, which often 
					arrives the next day. To find the location of the FedEx 
					Office nearest you,
					
					click here, and check the box labeled "Hold at location" 
					on the right side of the screen.

					Zinc detection 
					strips are moving into the manufacturing stage.  They 
					will be offered as an alternative to AP.  Although not 
					as sensitive as AP strips, zinc strips are more specific.  
					Plus, they have that cool yellow color with bright pink 
					spots upon exposure to semen:
