Areas of the body were swabbed (in duplicate)
and submitted for trace analysis using LC-MS and FT-IR. One of each
of the swabs was extracted with dichloromethane and water to obtain
organic (O) and aqueous (A) extracts, respectively.
The
duplicate swabs were stored for future analysis, if needed.

Microscopic examination of the vaginal swab
yielded no spermatozoa. The positive presence of PDMS (a lubricant
in Trojan latex condoms) is consistent with the lack of spermatozoa.
Analysis for nonoxynol-9 (spermicide) was negative. Swab samples
were retained for subsequent spectroscopic analysis if necessary.
