Robust system for screening mail for biological agents

摘要: Items of mail are rapidly processed in a sampling system to determine if the is contaminated with chemical or biological agent. The maintains negative pressure containment chamber and includes triggering sampler that makes threshold determination regarding possible contamination, detecting obtains sample for more detailed analysis response signal from sampler. A particulates collected an item either removed analyzed identify contaminating Optionally, archiving sampler, which archives samples subsequent processing analysis, decontamination system, activated decontaminate needed.
