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. A High-Throughput Blood Esterase Panel Assay

    SBC: AGAVE BIOSYSTEMS INC.            Topic: CBD10108

    Organophosphorus chemical warfare nerve agents (OP-CWA) are attractive to terrorist groups and rogue states as an inexpensive and accessible technology for chemical warfare. OP-CWA and organophosphate pesticides cause severe neurological symptoms and death by inhibiting the enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE); the resulting excess acetylcholine accumulates and overstimulates the human or animal bo ...

  2. MEMS Lamellar Based Interferometer for the Detection of Toxic Chemicals

    SBC: EPIR TECHNOLOGIES INC            Topic: CBD10104

    In order to satisfy the DOD and commercial needs for the detection and identification of chemical warfare agents, toxic industrial chemicals or biological compounds, we propose a compact, low-cost sensor based on the integration of HgCdTe photodiode detection technology with micro-opto-electromechanical systems (MOEMS) technology, which matches HgCdTe’s sensitivity with an inexpensive microscale ...

  3. Focal Plane Array Technology for Passive Hyperspectral Standoff Detection

    SBC: EPIR TECHNOLOGIES INC            Topic: CBD10105

    Chemical imaging sensors require focal plane arrays (FPAs) comprising long wavelength infrared (LWIR) detectors suitable for hyperspectral detection. These detectors require high sensitivity to account for the low photon counts in narrow wavelength bands. The required sensitivity elevates the associated costs, so a need exists for a lower cost LWIR FPA for use with chemical imaging sensors. The te ...

  4. Rapid, Non-Thermally Cured Composite Fabrication

    SBC: LUNA INNOVATIONS INCORPORATED            Topic: DLA09001

    Composite materials, with their high strength to weight ratios, manipulative properties, and corrosion resistance are now widely utilized throughout the military. High performance composites are required for air, sea, and land platforms. One of the drawbacks of these composite systems is the excessive costs and time required for part manufacturing. Prolonged elevated temperature curing is typic ...

  5. Low/No Power Detector for Organophosphate Nerve Agents

    SBC: LUNA INNOVATIONS INCORPORATED            Topic: CBD10101

    Organophosphate (OP) nerve agents are the most dangerous chemical warfare agents and therefore pose a significant threat. Rapid and exact identification of the OP agent involved in any hazardous material incident could significantly facilitate the administration of the most effective therapeutic and allow for appropriate measures of protection and decontamination, thereby increasing survival of t ...

  6. Residual Life Indicator for Adsorptive and Reactive Single-Pass Filtration Systems

    SBC: MORPHIX TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: CBD10106

    In peacetime environments, concerns over improbable encounter with agent threats are supplanted by the need to understand and assess the performance status or residual life (RL) capacity of sorbent-based technologies used in Collective Protection (ColPro) systems. Systems such as the M98 and M48A1 run continuously and therefore sample large volumes of outside air over their lifetime. It is well- ...

  7. DEVELOPMENT OF A BIOSENSOR NANOFLUIDIC PLATFORM FOR INTEGRATION WITH TERAHERTZ SPECTROSCOPIC SYSTEM

    SBC: VIBRATESS            Topic: CBD10110

    The goal of this SBIR project is to develop and demonstrate an electrokinetically driven nanofluidic sensor device of the physical size and shape that will allow integration with a THz spectroscopic instrument. The substrate and channel surfaces within the device will be appropriate for the acquisition of THz-frequency spectroscopic features from bio-molecules (e.g., DNA, RNA, proteins) in soluti ...

  8. Affinity Matrix System for Large-Scale Protein Purification

    SBC: LUNA INNOVATIONS INCORPORATED            Topic: CBD12102

    Though vast improvements have been made in various protein expression platforms, limitations arise in the implementation of current purification methods. Traditional chromatographic methods are time intensive, carry heavy material costs, and are difficult to scale - reducing the benefits achieved in protein expression. Affinity-binding methods are promising for scale-up and swiftness of purificati ...

  9. Detection of Liquid Contaminants on Surfaces Using Hyperspectral Imaging

    SBC: EPIR TECHNOLOGIES INC            Topic: CBD12104

    Quick detection of Chemical/Biological (CB) agents in the field can provide critical reconnaissance and contamination avoidance. CB agents pose a serious threat to both civilian and military sectors, and present techniques rely on dangerous collection methods, active measurement through external infrared (IR) sources, and/or are time-consuming. EPIR proposes to provide critically needed improvemen ...

  10. ARCH Technology for a Simple, Resilient, and Cost-Effective Auto- Injector

    SBC: AKTIVAX, INC.            Topic: CBD13106

    A prefilled auto-injector device for storing a beneficial agent in a dry and stable format alongside a diluent, and automatically delivering the beneficial agent to a patient after reconstitution. The device comprises an automatic needle insertion mechanism and automatic needle retraction mechanism and is safe and disabled after use. The primary drug container of the auto-injector is made from ...
