Various methods and techniques have been developed in the laboratory for the detection and identification of exposure to chemical warfare nerve agents (CWNAs). A broad range of analytical methods is available to screen urine, blood or body tissues for traces of CWNAs or their breakdown products. Laboratory-based methods allow the differentiation between CWNAs and non-CWNAs that are used in agric ...

In this Phase II SBIR project for the Army CBD, Torch Technologies of Huntsville, AL, will develop and demonstrate a fully operational prototype of its Advanced Chemical Release Evaluation System for fusing measurements of the concentration of clouds resulting from chemical releases. The ability to evaluate the performance of a stand-off detector during development depends on the ability to accura ...

"The Department of Defense Chemical and Biological Defense Program has a need for a highly effective, relatively low cost, low human toxicity coating or surface treatment that can be applied to fabrics and other surfaces to render them self-decontaminatingto chemical and biological warfare agents. ETEC has identified a novel chemistry that promises to be a highly effective self-regenerating decont ...

"This Phase I SBIR proposal is for the initial development of a miniaturized real-time visible/UV spectrometer based on micro-opto-electro-mechanical systems (MOEMS) technology. Use of MOEMS technology enables orders of magnitude reductions in size, weightand power from the smallest spectrometers commercially available today and virtually assures exceeding stated corresponding SBIR requirements. ...
