Approved Technologies

The SAFETY Act provides two levels of liability protections for approval: Designation and Certification. By obtaining either Designation or Certification, companies obtain a level of legal protection in case their technology is ever put to use during a terrorist attack. See below for a list of approved technology certifications.





Company/Technology

ANP Technologies Inc.

Approved: March 29, 2017 | Expires: April 30, 2022

ANP Technologies, Inc., provides the NIDS® (Nano Intelligent Detection System) Rapid Hand-Held Biothreat Detection System (the “Technology”). The Technology is multiplexed lateral flow immunoassays, together with an automated hand-held reader. Assays for multiple biological threat targets (e.g., toxins, bacteria and bacterial spores, viruses) can be incorporated onto a single test strip to enable 2-plexed, 5-plexed, or 10-plexed detection with a single test run. The Technology can be used to detect and identify select biological threat agents present in liquid samples prepared from powder, air samplers, surfaces, or water matrices. The reader provides visual alerts, electronic records of all samples, and operates on battery, PC via USB, or wall power.
