BADD™ Biowarfare Agent Detection Devices
Independently proven to be the best HHA Screening assay available in the world today! Used successfully around the world from mailrooms to media, HAZMAT to military, BADD™ has become the most sought after BW test to date. For years, this sound, proven technology has provided highly accurate results to thousands of users in the field and in the lab, with results in as little as three minutes. Accuracy, reliability, ease-of-use, without the need of expensive readers, makes BADD™ an overwhelming argument for simplicity.
BADD™ now has five separate detection capabilities, including anthrax, ricin toxin, botulinum toxin , Y. pestis and SEB. These five bio-threats make up the five most critical concerns from a first responder and military point of view. Whether you're a security specialist, first responder, university, hospital, mailroom or a government, no other field test provides better threat-screening capabilities for your team or organization than BADD™
The BADD™ screening device is a simple-to-use, environmental test for the rapid, qualitative detection of specific biological weapon threats in powders or liquids. The BADD™ screening devices provide a preliminary analytical result. Confirmation should be made by a more specific method, such as cell culture with PCR verification.
Independent studies have shown the anthrax assay is capable of detecting anthrax spores well below an infectious dose. (considered to be 8,000 to 10,000 spores)
Features include:
- Single detection capabilities
- Results in as little as 3 minutes
- No electronic readers or additional collection kits needed
- Excellent detection capabilities
- No cross reactivity to dozens of near neighbor strains including bacillus thuringiensis and bacillus globigii
- No cross-reactivity to common household substances such as flour, yeast, baby powder, sugar, etc.
In addition, BADD™ includes an inexpensive, Simulation/Trainer kit, to provide you and your team the opportunity to role-play prior to an actual event. These simple-to-use devices mimic the performance characteristics of our actual test devices. Performance Specs for Pro Strips and BADD or view our Library for all available data.
