Implant Sciences Corporation, a high technology supplier of systems and sensors for homeland security and defense markets, today announced the sale of Quantum Sniffer™ QS-B220 desktop explosives trace detectors to a major international airport in the European Union for use in air cargo screening.
Quantum Sniffer QS-B220
The Company has been serving the aviation security market since 2007 and to date has delivered hundreds of units to customers in 17 countries across 4 continents.
"In a competitive situation, our QS-B220s were selected by the customer because of the system's non-radioactive source and its ease-of-use. Many countries in the European Union have strict laws surrounding the use of radioactive materials. The QS-B220 is the only TSA-approved trace detector that does not incorporate radioactive isotopes," stated Dr. Darryl Jones, Implant Sciences' Vice President of Sales and Marketing.
The QS-B220's large color display and intuitive touch-screen interface minimize training requirements for security personnel using the systems. The systems' ease-of-use has been cited time and again in customer evaluations.
