"12/16/2008 Dr. Amos Turk is deposed in the Class Action Lawsuit against
Scent Lok for "diversity fraud". Is it good for Scent Lok - or bad.
Dr. Amos Turk, who Scent Lok has touted as their "activated carbon expert"
was recently deposed in the Class Action Lawsuit against Scent Lok
for "diversity fraud".
During the deposition Dr. Turk was asked to tear apart a piece of Scent
Lok fabric from a jacket. When asked if he could see the carbon on the
fabric Dr. Turk stated "I don't see - I do not see the particles"
and "they are not heavily impregnated (onto the fabric, Edit)". When asked
whether air could pass through the fabric without coming in contact with
the carbon Turk stated, "yes" and added that, "air that passes through is
not changed in its concentration of odorous material as a result of the
passage".
Dr. Turk also added that, "If air passes through (the fabric, Edit) at any
measurable rate, it would not be desorbed. Nothing wold be efficiently
purified by the carbon particles." When asked if air that has odors in it
could pass through the fabric, based on the gaps between the carbon
particles, Dr. Turk responded, "if there were any motion on the part of
the user that would make the air go back or back and forth, then it would
not be effectively removed".
Scent Lok has advertised that its fabric will eliminate 100% of a hunters
odors 100% if the time. The testimony of their own "expert" appears to
contradict Scent Lok's claims. To read part of Dr. Amos Turk's testimony
