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. Plant Detoxification by Ruminal Microbe Supplementation in Cattle

    SBC: Bainbridge Technology Group,            Topic: N/A

    Toxic plants constitute 10% of all cattle's deaths and are a major economic concern in certain areas of the United States. A new scientific direction may provide a solution to markedly reduce these economic losses. This solution is to take anaerobic microbes that break down the toxins from resistant species and transfer them to susceptible species. As the toxin is released from the ingested pla ...

  2. New Process for Synthesis of Insect Pheromones

    SBC: BEND RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: N/A

    This proposal is direct toward the development of a new, low-cost process for synthesizing insect pheromones. This process is based on the use of a novel, environmentally benign method using transition-metal catalysts, which should result in high yields of high-purity products. The use of pheromones for insect control has been commerically practiced for 20 years via a technique known as mating d ...

  3. Development of Biodegradable Water-Soluble Films from Pectin and Starch Blends

    SBC: Bioplastics, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    This Small Business Innovation Research Phase I project envisages new biodegradable, water-soluble films produced from blends of pectin and starch for commercial applications. The proposed research focuses on developing films by melt extrusion of plasticized blends of pectin and starch. The extruded films will be characterized in terms of blend morphology, mechanical properties, and barrier prop ...

  4. Assessment of Quality of Poultry Sperm

    SBC: BIOPORE, INC.            Topic: N/A

    The poultry industry is dependent on efficient reproduction. Reproduction of broiler lines increasingly is a problem and already is limiting for turkeys. Currently, breeders or producers can identify males of low fertility only retrospectively after a costly failure. However, elimination of the 25-35% of males likely to be of lowest fertility before they were turned in with hens would increase ...

  5. Development of a Quantitative Assay for Rodent Excreta

    SBC: Biotect, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    Rodent pancreatic trypsin will be isolated from rodent pancreatic tissue. The enzyme will be purified and injected into rabbits to generate polyclonal antibodies. The rabbit anti-rodent trypsin antibodies will be used to develop a sandwich ELISA assay for rodent fecal contamination in agricultural and food products.

  6. Formulation of Biofungicide Sprays for Consistent Control of Plant Diseases

    SBC: BIOWORKS INC.            Topic: N/A

    Large quantities of chemical pesticides are used to control plan diseases, rasing environmental and health concerns. Biological fungicides are needed as alternatives to chemical pesticides, especially for crops receiving heavy chemical applications. However, biofungicides require special formulation to be consistently effective, affordable and compatible with standard practices. We are develop ...

  7. DEVELOPMENT OF BLACK PEARL FARMING METHODS SUITABLE FOR HAWAII AND OPEN LAGOONS OF THE SOUTH PACIFIC

    SBC: Black Pearls Inc            Topic: N/A

    THE SUCCESSFUL DEVELOPMENT OF RELIABLE, LARGE-SCALE, HATCHERY TECHNIQUES FOR THE HAWAIIAN BLACK-LIP PEARL OYSTER NOW OPENS UP THE POTENTIAL FOR BLACK PEARL FARMING IN NEW AREAS ACROSS THE PACIFIC. EFFICIENT, COST-EFFECTIVE, GROW-OUT TECHNIQUES NEED TO BE DEVISED FOR THE HIGH-ENERGY MARINE CONDITIONS IN HAWAII AND OPEN ATOLL LAGOONS OF THE U.S.-AFFILIATED PACIFIC. CULTURE TRIALS WILL COMPARE TRADIT ...

  8. Fruit Inspection Using a Liquid Crystal Tunable Optical Filter Multispectral Camera

    SBC: BOULDER NONLINEAR SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: N/A

    Currently, fruit is sorted for bruises and blemishes by hand. This is an inefficient and labor intensive method for detemining fruit quality, in need of automation. It has recently been determined that visible and near infrared multispectral imaging is useful for extracting several fruit quality characteristics. In order to acquire information in several bands as fruit is processed, a high thro ...

  9. A SHORT RANGE OPTICAL DATA LINK FOR ROTARY SAMPLERS WHICH PROVIDE CONTINUOUS REAL TIME DATA

    SBC: Bruce W Jorden & Co Inc.            Topic: N/A

    THE FEASIBILITY OF LOW COST REAL TIME SENSORS CAPABLE OF DETECTING AGRICULTURAL SPRAY DRIFT (JORDEN, 1993) AND SOLID AIRBORNE PARTICLES (JORDEN 1992) HAS BEEN DEMONSTRATED. WHILE THESE DEVICES ARE VERY EFFECTIVE IN THEIR PRESENT FORM, THEY CAN BECOME MORE ACCURATE AND VERSATILE IF THEY ARE ABLE TO SAMPLE LARGER VOLUMES OF AIR. THIS CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED BY ROTATING THE SENSORS THROUGH THE AIR AT A H ...

  10. Foam in Place Mulching Method for Specialty Crops

    SBC: C And A Country Gardens            Topic: N/A

    Frothed foams will be prepared and applied in place as low cost mulches for weed control in small plot specialty crop operations. Foam mixes will be formulated from degradable natural polymers including gelatins and starches. Fillers will be common cellulosic mulch ingredients such as crushed seed hulls and corncobs. A conventional portable spray tank modified with an impeller blade will mechan ...
