- Description
- Request For Information (RFI) The Department of Homeland Security Science & Technology (DHS S&T) Directorate is seeking suggestions for new technical efforts that have potential to address requirements in the agricultural screening tools area. Specifically, DHS S&T is searching for near term solutions (12-18 months) for field deployable detection systems that can quickly (minutes) detect and identify agricultural pathogens of concern. The detection of zoonotic, foreign animal diseases, and plant pests, the end user requires tests that have optimized sensitivity and specificity, can be rapidly deployed and easy to use during an outbreak or for routine surveillance. The cost to deploy tests must be inexpensive due to a large number of samples that are anticipated for processing.
