Detection Baseline Market Survey; Synthetic Opioids, Drugs of Abuse, and Pharmaceutical Based Agents (Revision 4)

Abstract

This report is a current off-the-shelf (COTS) products for field detection of synthetic opioids, drugs of abuse, and pharmaceutical based agents. Specific performance, operational and physical criteria were developed to narrow the focus of the survey to those products best suited for field detection scenarios. The technical approach for compiling product information was to review the open literature (including market surveys compiled by other groups), conduct internet searches, and contact vendors, users and subject matter experts in the area of field-portable chemical detection products. The scores presented herein are applicable to the description scenarios only. Chemicals were identified by NATO International Task Force 25(ITF-25). This market survey provides product information for 128 chemical detectors and includes a product summary, including performance, operational and physical specifications for each product.
