Which decontamination kit is specifically used for skin decontamination?

The M-291 kit is specifically designed for skin decontamination. It contains specialized decontaminants that effectively neutralize chemical agents on the skin. The kit includes kits that feature wipes or similar substances that can remove or neutralize contaminants, making it essential for personnel who may come into contact with hazardous materials. This focus on skin decontamination stands out as a critical capability, especially in scenarios involving chemical warfare or toxic agents.

In contrast, other options serve different purposes. The M-295 kit and the M-295 decon system are intended for decontaminating equipment and materials rather than human skin. They focus on larger surfaces and do not include the specific skin-friendly formulations found in the M-291 kit. The M-9 test paper serves as a detection tool rather than a decontamination method, used to identify the presence of chemical agents rather than to neutralize them. This distinction illustrates why the M-291 kit is the correct choice for skin decontamination.
