The focus of this SBIR proposal is to demonstrate rapid, multiplexed detection of acute bacterial and viral pathogens of global importance on asingle test platform. Daktaris microfluidic immunoassay platform, under development since 2009 for HIV and hepatitis C (HCV) applications, iscapable of femtomolar detection of bacterial and viral antigens consistent with needs for infectious disease diagnos ...

The objective of the proposed Phase II project is to develop a hand-held, rapid plasmonic biosensor -- a detector based upon surfaceplasmon resonances (SPR) that incorporates a new class of supercharged proteins that functionalize a low-cost, disposable plasmonicchip. Each protein is designed to bind to a pre-determined toxin with high specificity. Upon successful binding, the protein superfoldsre ...

Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent chemicals that have been introduced to the environment through manufacturing, use, and disposal of products containing PFAS. Some PFAS have been phased out of production; however, their legacy persists through widespread contamination of air, water, soil, and biota. The U.S. EPA has issued a lifetime drinking water Health Advisory Level (HA ...

This project will result in the creation of multiple Technical Data Packages (TDP) and Source Approval Requests (SAR) as well as supporting CEPEDA’s acquisition of all of McNab’s Navy products.  Successful completion will qualify CEPEDA Associates as an approved vendor for these items that have been orphaned as a result of McNab's dissolution.  CEPEDA is a qualified Navy vendor for critical ...

Metamagnetics proposes to develop prototype bolt-on Auto-tune Filter (AtF) modules that reject strong signals at two tactically-relevant frequency bands.

Vivonics is proposing a novel approach to address the needs of a non-invasive and real-time system to measure intracranial pressure (ICP) to support development of medical countermeasures. The proposed Intracranial Pressure Assessment and Screening System for Viral or Bacterial Infections (IPASS-VBI) leverages Vivonics expertise in non-invasively assessing ICP in humans due to traumatic brain inju ...

Threats using chemical and biological weapons are ever-evolving and expanding in scope, underscoring the need for preparedness; therefore, the development and procurement of medical countermeasures is a high priority for the US. The high availability of synthetic opioids, such as fentanyl and its derivatives, is a threat to both the civilian and military communities. Currently, long acting opioid ...

The proposed project covers manufacturing improvements in the production of specific high volume batteries of interest to DLA as specified in their SBIR Proposal Submission Request noted above, with the exception of the PRC-154 and PLM-4 Batteries. Bren-Tronics proposes to go directly to Phase II because we have already demonstrated the feasibility of the proposed manufacturing improvements on the ...

Triton Systems propose to integrate 3-D printing into the capabilities of the DLA medical supply chain. This proposed innovation includes development of our medical 3-D printing technology and the demonstration of its capability to print of a variety of life-saving suplies in the DLA medical supply chain such as medical equipment, human tissue, and medicine. Medical 3D printing will enable the DLA ...

The research resulted in the development of a new approach to hyperspectral imaging utilizing Compressive Sensing. The newly conceived snapshot spectral imager will provide spectral data in a very compact package. It will be virtually indistinguishable from a standard infrared camera but with the added capability for spectral measurement. The camera will thus deliver chemical species information m ...
