20160003774 | Substances Detection System and Method - A system and methodology for the detection of threat substances is described. The detector system consists of a method to evaporate the sample into a primary separator and thermal release of trapped target materials into a secondary separator like conventional GC. The GC column is thermally ramped to elute all substances and the end of the column terminates into an atmospheric pressure chemical ionization source of an axial ion mobility spectrometer (AIMS). Both polarity ions are pulsed into a single construction separator tube at different timing. Their arrival time is detected on a collector plate, which allows registering their ion mobility spectra of both polarities for a single GC peak. | 01-07-2016 |

20130137183 | AIRCRAFT SCREENING DEVICE AND METHOD - A method of screening aircraft passengers and/or cargo comprising loading an aircraft with passengers, cargo or both, circulating air within the aircraft so that the air is in contact with the passengers and/or cargo, expelling some of the circulated air from the aircraft, diverting a portion of the air being expelled from the aircraft through a chemical filter configured to retained evidence of a target substance, and analyzing the chemical filter to detect the presence of a target substance within the aircraft. | 05-30-2013 |
