Biological agent detection

Protection of troops against attack by biological warfare agents has long been a focus for Smiths Detection. We have developed advanced bio detection suites and now act as systems integrators on major programmes.

As the threat target has widened to the general public, the technology has been adapted and simplified to create field deployable instruments and mail room systems that offer laboratory standard identification of bio agents, on-the-spot, with minimum delay.

Systems now being introduced are recognised as state of the art for rapid detection and accurate identification.
