An absorbent article having a front end region, a rear end region, a central region disposed between the front and rear end regions, a fluids source area, and a transverse axis and a longitudinal axis. Primers useful for the methods include canine IgH CDR3-specific and caninen T-cell receptor gamma-specific primers. A heater is provided for receiving the first and second explosives detecting reagent holders and dispensers. The first cooling loop passes facility coolant through the first heat exchanger, and the second cooling loop provides system coolant to an electronics subsystem, and expels heat in the first heat exchanger from the subsystem to the facility coolant. In the preferred embodiment, the timing of these inputs is controlled, at least in part, by the temperature sensor output. The destination device terminates the data packet and may further service the data packet.
