BIOSENSOR 2200R The new BIOSENSOR 2200R Biological Agent Detector from MSA is a handheld, portable, on-site instrument for rapid detection, analysis, and identification of biological agents. Unique bioassay technology offers excellent sensitivity and low false positives while offering ease of use during white powder response calls. This highly accurate detection method provides rapid measurement of biohazards such as anthrax, ricin, botulism, SEB, and plague. Exclusive five minute time-to-answer allows first responders to make informed critical decisions more rapidly than any other biological agent detector. The BIOSENSOR 2200R employs dynamic surface generation, a patent pending type of immunoassay detection technology. This technology offers significant advantages over other field-based assay methods by combining the benefits of both the free solution and lateral flow types. The result is more rapid analysis, a user-friendly format, and detector stability within a wide range of climates. Both wet and dry samples may be tested and results are displayed with a simple red (target present) or green (no target present) indication. As tests are nondestructive, samples may be retained as evidence. Single-test, disposable cartridges with on-board reagents have a 12-month shelf life. This instrument is permanently housed in a sturdy, lightweight Pelican case. 5 minute time-to-answer Uses positive and negative control cartridges Battery-operated with ability to run 50 tests on a single charge Fully deconable housing; IP67 rated Visual and audible alarms provide clear indication of status Extremely easy to use with a training time of one hour Integrated RFID (radio frequency identification) for automatic cartridge recognition Authorized Distributor Firematic is an authorized distributor and repair center for MSA gear.
