Enhanced Sensitivity Explosives Sensors (Yissum)

Summary

Most sensitive sensors available to date – considerably more sensitive than dogs
Sensitivity of 10-15 molar achieved
Readout signal for sensing is electrochemical (current) or optical (surface plasmon resonance)
Available readers will need adaptation for field work
Analysis of TNT and RDXHighly sensitive explosives detectors based on the molecular imprinting of recognition sites for various explosives in a 3-dimensional network of metallic nano-particles associated with surfaces.
The explosives particles are collected and dissolved in water droplets that are then analyzed.Highly sensitive explosives detectors based on the molecular imprinting of recognition sites for various explosives in a 3-dimensional network of metallic nano-particles associated with surfaces.
The explosives particles are collected and dissolved in water droplets that are then analyzed.Ready for commercialization – seeking partner with expertise in explosive particle collection systems

Technology Benefits

Detection of explosives used in humanitarian mine clearing, remediation of explosives waste sites, homeland security and forensics
Detection of TNT particularly important for mine detection
Detection of RDX, an explosive with low vapour pressure
