First responders have a quick and easy way to determine whether a suspicious powder is a likely bio-weapons agent without spending a lot of time (or money). BioScreener™ is a disposable presumptive test that identifies potential threat-agents such as suspicious powders; within approximately 30 seconds, identify whether a substance is a probable bio-weapons agent or just a harmless powder. Collect the sample by simply dabbing the sample tip on the suspect material; analyze the sample by cracking the built-in ampoules and watching for the specified color change.
BioScreener™ can eliminate the threat posed by a suspicious powder in seconds. Instead of shutting down an area for hours or days pending results of an analysis, first responders can identify a suspicious powder as a non bio-agent in seconds.
