美研发细菌、病毒和毒素的手持式生物武器识别器

 
一种能够鉴别细菌、病毒和毒素的手持生物武器鉴别器正在研发之中。

美国国防部高级研究计划属（Darpa）手持等温银标准(HISSS)项目的目的，是根据下一代核酸和蛋白检测技术开发出生物鉴别系统。该系统包括一种设备，该设备是根据先进的微电子技术和专门的植入式软件和一系列耗材组成的。

Northrop Grumman电子公司(Los Angeles, CA, USA)将在2006年11月9-10日美国圣地亚哥(CA, USA)举行的第9届国际检测技术学术讨论会上提供更多的细节。样本制备和检测新方法也将在该学术讨论会上提供。
 
Bioagent System to Identify Bacteria, Viruses, Toxins
 
A handheld bioagent identifier is being developed to identify bacteria, viruses, and toxins.

The purpose of the Darpa handheld isothermal silver standard (HISSS) program is to develop a bioidentifier system based on next-generation nucleic acid- and protein-
detection technologies. The system will consist of an instrument, which is based on advanced microelectronics technologies and specialized embedded software, and a series of consumables.

Northrop Grumman Electronic Systems (Los Angeles, CA, USA) will provide more details on the bioagent identifier at the 9th International Detection Technologies Symposium, to be held November 9-10, 2006, in San Diego (CA, USA). Details of the new sample preparation schemes and assays will be provided at the symposium.
