Implant Sciences' QS-B220 Named "Best Explosives Detection Solution" for the 2nd Consecutive Year
GSN's Homeland Security Awards Program selects the QS-B220 in both 2013 and 2014
WILMINGTON, Mass., Nov. 26, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Implant Sciences Corporation (OTCQB: IMSC), a leading manufacturer of explosives trace detection (ETD) and drugs trace detection solutions for homeland security applications, announced today its QS-B220 desktop explosives and drugs trace detector has won the 2014 GSN Homeland Security Award for "Best Explosives Detection Solution". This marks the second year in a row that the QS-B220 has been given this award.
The GSN Homeland Security Awards are sponsored by Government Security News, a leading publisher of government and homeland security news. Hundreds of nominations were submitted by leading vendors of IT and physical security products and federal, state, county, and municipal government agencies, highlighting their most noteworthy programs and projects.
"This has been quite the month for Implant Sciences and the QS-B220. Two weeks ago we signed an Indefinite Delivery / Indefinite Quantity contract for up to $162 million with the federal government and received the largest order in Company history for the product, while last week we won the GSN award for the second consecutive year. These events confirm our belief that the QS-B220 defines the new standard in explosives trace detection with industry-leading accuracy, speed, and operational efficiency," stated Implant Sciences' President and CEO, Glenn D. Bolduc.
About the QS-B220 Desktop Explosives and Drugs Trace Detector
The QS-B220 uses Ion Mobility Spectrometry (IMS) to rapidly detect and identify trace amounts of a wide variety of military, commercial, and homemade explosives as well as illicit drugs. With significantly lower maintenance requirements than competing systems, the QS-B220 can be deployed for a much lower total cost of ownership than other approved products. Featuring a radioactive material-free design, push-button maintenance and diagnostics, and a patented inCal™ internal automatic calibration system, the QS-B220 brings new levels of performance and convenience to desktop trace detection users with unsurpassed ease of use.
