Idaho Technology Gains Army Approval Of Platinum Path™ Extraction Kit For Biological Pathogen Detection Program

Idaho Technology, Inc. has received the support of the U.S. Army Test and Evaluation Command (ATEC) for use of the Platinum Path™ Extraction Kit (PPEK) with the Joint Biological Agent Identification and Diagnostic System (JBAIDS). "The PPEK kit is designed to handle dozens of different sample types, replacing the need for multiple specialized kits. In addition, it offers vast improvements and efficiencies over previous sample preparation methods. Our kit results in a clean sample ready for analysis in less than 30 minutes, two to three times as fast as some other methods," said Deepika de Silva, vice president of biochemistry for Idaho Technology. Developed under the direction and cooperation of the Joint Program Executive Office for Chemical and Biological Defense - Chemical Biological Medical Systems (CBMS) Joint Project Management Office, the PPEK will provide a significant cost savings across all service branches through the elimination of redundant sample preparation kits. The Platinum Path Extraction Kit reduces the annual extraction kit costs by 42% and represents an 80% reduction in the logistics footprint. Additionally, the Platinum Path kit reduces the training requirement by as much as 20%, while delivering increased operational effectiveness and suitability when compared to the currently fielded five extraction kits. "The entire JBAIDS Program"s mission is about making our war fighters safe against biological weapons and pandemic viral threats. The addition of the PPEK makes that mission easier and reduces logistics which saves money and more importantly will save lives. Idaho Technology is proud of this program and the difference it is making for the Department of Defense and our country," said Todd Ritter, chief development officer for Idaho Technology.
