The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY23 is not expected to be complete until September, 2024.

Download all SBIR.gov award data either with award abstracts (290MB) or without award abstracts (65MB). A data dictionary and additional information is located on the Data Resource Page. Files are refreshed monthly.

The SBIR.gov award data files now contain the required fields to calculate award timeliness for individual awards or for an agency or branch. Additional information on calculating award timeliness is available on the Data Resource Page.

  1. Biodegradable Thermoplastic Natural Fiber Composite

    SBC: Li, Yan D.B.A.            Topic: 06NCERA4

    This SBIR Phase I project aims to develop low-cost and fully biodegradable composites based on plant fibers and a thermoplastic lignin resin. The lignin resin will be based on chemically modified industrial byproduct lignins and will be specially formulated to obtain suitable tensile and shear strengths. It will be made compatible with plant fibers and thus afford good fiber-matrix adhesion and ...

  2. Handheld MEMS-based Detector of Toxins and Toxigenic Organisms Indicative of Harmful Algal Bloom

    SBC: SEACOAST SCIENCE, INC.            Topic: 06NCERC1

    Seacoast Science proposes the extension of our MEMS-based sensor technology to provide near real-time detection, identification, and quantification of toxins and toxigenic organisms indicative of cyanobacteria harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs) in drinking water to provide administrators the information for public safety. Different monoclonal antibody conjugates will be mapped onto each sensor using ...

  3. Investigation of Solvent Toxicity in Bacterial Strains Involved in Butanol Production

    SBC: Integrated Genomics, Inc.            Topic: 06NCERD1

    Reduction in dependency on imported petroleum and the quest to identify renewable energy sources has led to a search for innovative biofuels derived from renewable biomass, which promise long-term reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. Butanol is one possible biofuel. It is an industrial fuel that can be produced from crops using acetone-butanol (AB) fermentation by butanolagenic microbes, such a ...

  4. Nanoparticle Based Lateral Flow Microarray Test Strip Assay

    SBC: INTELLIGENT OPTICAL SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: 06NCERD2

    Nanoparticles exhibit unique optical properties that can be exploited in the development of highly sensitive assay systems. This project describes the development of a lateral flow test strip microarray that will utilize nanoparticle amplification to detect waterborne pathogens. Waterborne pathogens have been chosen for this study because they can cause severe illness, and even death, and theref ...

  5. Ultrasensitive Acrolein Sensor for Environmental Monitoring

    SBC: PICARRO, INC.            Topic: 05NCERB2

    Picarro, Inc., will build a trace gas sensor based on cavity ringdown spectroscopy (CRDS) targeting the acrolein absorption band at 1623 nm for environmental monitoring. Acrolein is a ubiquitous airborne pollutant. Its sources include burning vegetation (e.g., forest fires), waste incinerators, furnaces, fireplace, gasoline- and diesel-engine emissions, power plants, polyethylene ...

  6. A Membrane Preconcentrator for Portable Trace VOC Detectors

    SBC: MEMBRANE TECHNOLOGY AND RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: 05NCERC3

    The sensitivity of low-cost, portable volatile organic compound (VOC) detectors currently in use is low, which limits their application in many situations. More sensitive detectors are more expensive and less robust and not suitable for field use. This Phase I project involves the development of a membrane-based preconcentrator able to concentrate trace amounts of VOC contaminants to levels that ...

  7. An Integrated Ventilation, Vapor Compression and Indirect Evaporative Cooling System

    SBC: Davis Energy Group, Inc.            Topic: 05NCERD5

    This Phase I SBIR project addresses environmental problems associated with indoor air quality (IAQ) and energy consumption in residential buildings. As building envelopes increasingly become tight to satisfy energy efficiency requirements, health conditions that are correlated with IAQ, such as asthma and allergic diseases, are on the rise. The most effective strategy to improve IAQ is ventilation ...

  8. Integration of Biological High throughput Data with a Metabolic Model of a Liver Cell

    SBC: GENOMATICA, INC.            Topic: 05NCERD8

    A large number of potentially harmful chemicals and pollutants in the environment make comprehensive experimental chemical testing cost prohibitive and unrealistic. Methods that can decrease the required experimental work and aid in the streamlining of this process would provide a valuable tool in this area. Computational cellular modeling can provide a significant improvement in linking expo ...

  9. Development of a Reliable, Low-Cost and User-Friendly Spot Test Kit for Leaded Paint and Dust Based on Recent Advances in Bionanotechnology

    SBC: ANDALYZE, INC.            Topic: 05NCERD9

    Lead in household paint and dust is a serious health hazard, as low-level lead exposure can result in a number of adverse health effects, especially in children. Onsite and real-time detection and quantification of lead in paint/dust are very important to homeowners and certified lead-based paint removal professionals. Toward this end, both field-portable equipment (such as X-ray fluorescenc ...

  10. Quiet Reliable and Compact Fuel Cell Based APU (QRCFC-APU)

    SBC: ALTEX TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION            Topic: 05NCERB2

    There are more than 480,000 trucks on U.S. roads, and each vehicle produces up to 20 tons CO2, 420 lbs of CO, and 250 lbs of nitrous oxides per year while idling to produce auxiliary power needed for the driver’s comfort. The overall goal of this project is a Quiet Reliable and Compact Fuel Cell Base Auxiliary Power Unit (QRCFC-APU) to reduce significantly idling emissions. QRCFC ...
