Body odour bank
DOHA: Qatar has become the
first country in the Middle East
to set up a human body odour
bank to trace criminals.
The innovative concept, that
has already been introduced in
a few countries including China,
allows the storage of human body
odour that can help police dogs in
identifying criminals.
The odour bank has been set up
by the Ministry of Interior at the
new building of the Police Canine
Section of its Criminal Evidences
and Information Department
(CEID) on the Salwa Road, which
was officially opened on Tuesday.

Never go to that body odour bank :) yiikss..but nice start..
they shud start collecting samples at the industrial area compounds.....
Well, they will certainly have rich pickings for their BO bank here.
It must work.. the chinese have been using this technique for a few years..
Dogs are very well trained. If they fail, they become food :o(
This will not help much I am afraid...will be just a waste of time and effort by the government and residents...not worth the effort. With the crime rate being reasonably low in Qatar, most investigations may not need the BO help and finally, how can you depend on a dog to recognise the odour from millions of BO in the database??.. ROLF
so, does this mean all residents, new and old, have to appear for a BO examination and submit the BO code while applying the visa?
thats 220mn receptors...
Can only hope the dogs are treated better in their new faclility than they were treated in their old one....
Brit have you got any Lynx for that Costume?
I got invited to a fancy dress party and wanted to go as a large can of deoderant.
The wife wasn't convinced and said "Are you Sure?" :O(
ROFL!!!!!!!
OMG....can't stop laughing...this is so funny...a BO bank in Qatar...LMAO
Mike its posted in the Gulf times, most of the Caninies are Alsations
hm hi
Dogs have the ability of perceiving a particular ph from someone and it's pretty hard to keep it masked. I think it's an excellent idea, I am just wondering what breeds they will be using for this task.
TBK..you sTinker..:)
tell me too
So now you started keeping secrets from me(:
Where and when?
I am here in Doha my darling :-)
Been as busy as a Queen Bee at honey making time.
Looking at this thread though I may have to go and buy some Febreeze lol
How are you my little ball of dynamite? xoxox
rofl at this is a Stink Up. (giggling)
rizk dnt put ur one leg up ........ brit n LP are waiting :p
dogs are used specifically for that isnt it? else why are they brought to crime scenes?
Odour bank? poor dogs!! i hope they don't puke! :D
propaganda :)
Oh.. No! poor Doggie :( Dogs will refrain from doing this..
well I saw one episode bloodhound from Mythbusters and this myth is "confirm". Dogs can really trace through Odour.
i will raise my one Leg up so tat i can fart easily...:(
i think tat too comes under this investigation 'Stink Up'...:)
LP even more, we human's have 5M olfactory receptors while dogs have 25M. No need to elaborate on that..
So, TAKE A BATH and change your perfume frequently if you are a criminal. The dogs will be confused.
poor dogs.. =(
Yeah, brit. But these were 'partners'. Do dogs have similar properties?
I recall an experiment I witnessed many years ago..
Seven men were asked to wear the same shirt for two days.
Their partners were blind folded and asked to identify the shirt by the body odour. All seven got it right :o)
LP....UGHHHH ;)
how many countries have this kind of a setup?
My body odor is always contaminated by my woman's odor, and vice versa.
Lol!
BUt how would you preserve the body odor ? how would you know if its spoiled already ?
i_isale..what NEXT? May be a Sperm bank to track down Rapists..:)
Next will be a perfume that covers body odor.
IS This going to work
what next?
