The BioFlash-E® Biological Identifier — A rapid, biological aerosol collection & identification system.
PathSensors’ BioFlash-E® Biological Identifier is rugged, highly-portable and incorporates a high-volume, high-performance aerosol sampler for indoor/outdoor applications.
Incorporating the CANARY® technology, the BioFlash-E® Biological Identifier provides rapid, sensitive and specific identification of up to 21 biological threat agents. The portable and compact BioFlash-E® Biological Identifier offers breakthrough capabilities in sampling performance, reliability and operational cost.
Technology You Can Count On
The BioFlash-E® Biological Identifier uses proprietary aerosol collection technology and MIT Lincoln Labs developed CANARY® detection technology to offer a complete, stand-alone solution for biological identification. The BioFlash-E® provides a low-risk, cost-effective solution to biological sampling and identification.
CANARY® technology has been tested at Dugway Proving Ground, ECBC and Battelle Memorial Labs. The technology has been validated through its use in a government building security biomonitoring system.
The BioFlash-E® Delivers Efficiency, Value, Portability, Speed and Convenience
• Integral aerosol sampling capability for high-efficiency sample collection
• Particle collection of 1-10 micron size particles
• Proven technology
• Low operational and maintenance costs
• Compact and lightweight design
• Easy to use and decontaminate
• PCR levels of sensitivity and specificity
• Low false-alarm rates
BioFlash-E® Has a Wide Range of Markets and Applications
Military force protection
Stand-alone field portable biological detection and identification
Facility security monitoring
As an identifier component for integrated biological detection systems
Urban biological monitoring and event monitoring
Biological identifier for reconnaissance vehicles, unmanned ground vehicles and mobile labs
Portability and Convenience — Ergonomic Design Makes the
Note: Can be configured as a stand-alone device, used in tiered detection architectures to include a trigger and confirmatory sampler, or as an integrated component subsystem.
PathSensors has designed the BioFlash-E® with the assistance of end-users and industrial designers to provide portability, ease-of-use, low maintenance and user safety. The BioFlash-E® Biological Identifier’s balanced design is lightweight and rugged to survive today’s toughest environments. With enlarged, sealed pushbuttons and an expansive display screen, the BioFlash-E® is easy to set up, use and decontaminate while wearing Personal Protective Equipment.
The BioFlash-E® utilizes the BioDisc™, a unique disposable integrated collection, reagent storage and test chamber. The operator simply inserts the BioDisc™ and the BioFlash-E® automatically collects and identifies up to 21 potentially hazardous biological agents. The simple and safe “remove and replace” procedure takes less than 2 minutes to complete, requiring minimal user training.
