Phoenix S&T used an Aberdeen Technology Transfer Initiative for the commercialization of its automation nanospray system to be used with a mass spectrometer to analyze molecules for drug discovery and clinical cancer diagnostics. A Cooperative R&D Agreement with the Army's Edgewood Chemical Biological Center was used to refine and test these nozzles.
Simultaneously, the Army is developing an automated array spotter for studying chemical agent fate as a function of weather conditions, time, etc. As a result, in addition to the nozzlesÕ use in the commercial drug and medical industry, the Army will also use the Phoenix S&T nozzles in its mass spectrometers.
QuickSilver Analytics used an Aberdeen Technical Transfer Initiative to improve a plastic molded component and market its BiSKit. With a Cooperative R&D Agreement and license agreement with the Army's Edgewood Chemical and Biological Center. QuickSilver improved and is now manufacturing and selling the BiSKit, a state-of-the-art large area biological sampling kit developed by the Army.
BSCO invented a micro fire suppression system with a special nozzle that uses HFC 125 which suppresses fire without damaging sensitive electronic components. The system can be used in computer rooms and other areas such as radar control units. The Aberdeen Test Center tested the system to UL standards for BSCO under the Aberdeen Technology Transfer Initiative. BSCO is now manufacturing and selling the systems.
