OC oleoresion capsicum irritant agent and its effects in conjunction with Jet Protector Technology

Oleoresin Capsicum (OC) is an extract of the cayenne pepper plant. OC is the most effective inflammatory agent available today, and is succesfully used by law enforcement professionals around the world. OC has proven superior to both CS and CN tear gas when used against assailants under the influence of drogs or alcohol, as well as against psychotics.

The inflammatory agent fired from the Jet Protector products is immediately effective upon contact with the face of an aggressor. The high velocity of the liquid jet as well as the inflammatory effects of the OC agent instantly interrupt forward movement. The OC works rapidly as an inflammatory agent to the eyes, mucous membranes and respiratory system. The result is temporary blindness, coughing and nausea with extreme discomfort.

The eyes of the aggressor immediately shut, and the high velocity of the jet ensures that the agent will penetrate behind eye glasses, through cloth masks and other masks with eye openings. This temporary blindness leads to instant incapacitation and lasts for about 45-60 minutes. Symptoms will disappear, usually with no after-effects.

In addition to the standard OC formulation other irritant agents or formulations are available upon request.
