ETD-100™
GreyScan offers explosive trace detection for inorganic explosives. The GreyScan system utilizes Capillary Zone Electrophoresis (CZE) technology for the separation and analysis of samples. The underlying principal of this separation method is similar to Ion Mobility Spectrometry, except the separation occurs in an aqueous phase rather than in the gaseous phase. The CZE detection method does not require the use of a radioactive source, removing the need for time-consuming radiation testing or transportation licenses. This makes it an environmentally friendly and safe solution for trace explosive detection
