The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY24 is not expected to be complete until March, 2025.

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. Novel Electrochemical Sensors for Ag Diagnostics and GMOs

    SBC: Agdia, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    Unique challenges face agriculture diagnostics, dictated by the small profit margins in crop production and the need for rapid, reliable assay information under highly variable environmental conditions. The need to identify genetically modified organisms (GMOs) has recently become acute due to new legislation, public demands, global transport of plants, and commercial processing of food and fiber. ...

  2. Natural Products for the Control of Insects, Mites, and Nematodes

    SBC: AgraQuest, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    Agriculture needs biorational pesticides to serve as replacements in an industry dominated by outdated synthetic chemicals. Residues in the food supply, environmental impact, and worker safety issues underscore the need for novel pesticides. Without a range of products with unique modes of action, the overuse of limited chemicals and biorational approaches (Bacillus thuringiensis-based transgenic ...

  3. Selection of Probability Distributions for Discrete-Event Simulation Models

    SBC: Averill M. Law & Associates, Inc            Topic: N/A

    Discrete-event simulation is used by thousands of companies to design new manufacturing systems and to improve the performance of existing ones. Manufacturing systems contain numerous sources of randomness such as machine times to failure and machine repair times, which greatly impact on system performance. If each source of system randomness is not modeled by an appropriate probability distr ...

  4. A Device to Package a Semi-Solid Diet for Rearing Arthropod Predators

    SBC: BENEFICIAL INSECTARY, INC.            Topic: N/A

    A new semisolid artificial diet enclosed in membranes that allow feeding by the predacious green lacewing, Chrysoperla rufilabris, has been invented by USDA/ARS scientist A. Cohen. Phase I studies conducted by Beneficial Insectary showed that the Cohen diet in the Cohen food pack was superior in several key areas to the live insect diet currently used for commercial mass rearing of C. rufilabris. ...

  6. Does Size, Growth and Sterility of Triploid Black-Lip Pearl Oysters Result in Better Pearls?

    SBC: Black Pearls Inc            Topic: N/A

    Pearl culture is the most lucrative aquaculture industry in the Pacific Islands, and is an ideal development activity for remote, otherwise-impoverished atolls. Commercial farmers in the U.S.-affiliated Pacific Islands must be hatchery-based, offering opportunity for value-added improvements from triploidy for little additional cost. Techniques for inducing triploidy in Pinctada margaritifera will ...

  7. Improvement of a Bio-PCR Test for Routine Detection of Watermelon Fruit Blotch Pathogen

    SBC: CalSPL            Topic: N/A

    Fruit blotch is a serious seedborne disease of watermelon. In an attempt to control this disease, the seed industry has adopted a zero tolerance of infected seeds. Available tests for detecting infected seeds include grow-out, liquid plating, classical PCR tests. These tests are either not sensitive enough, resulting in false negative, not specific enough, resulting in false positives, or are very ...

  10. Production of Crown Gall Resistant Plants

    SBC: Dry Creek Laboratories            Topic: N/A

    Crown gall is a multimillion dollar worldwide problem in fruit and nut orchards, vineyards, and nurseries. Tumors result from overproduction of auxin and cytokinin in plant cells transformed by Agrobacterium tumefaciens. These high phytohormone levels result from expression of three genes transferred stably into the plant genome from A. tumefaciens: iaaM, iaaH, and ipt. Inactivation of iptand eith ...
