БългарскиThe project is entitled: "A field detector for genotoxicity from CBRN and explosive devices" and is sponsored by NATO Science for Peace and Security Programme, Grant Number G5266.
Four countries take part in the project - Bulgaria, Turkey, The Former Yugoslavic Republic of Macedonia and USA. The project is in strong collaboration with The Atlantic Club in Bulgaria.
A field detector for genotoxicity from CBRN and explosive devices
Project abstract:
The threat of terrorist attacks together with the
increasing danger of local wars requires a constant search and elaboration of
new means for their counteracting. In the current project we are proposing
development of a portable, field-employable detector for assessment of
genotoxicity produced by CBRN agents, explosives and other illicit compounds.
On the basis of bioengineered cells with increased sensitivity to genotoxins
the device will quickly, correctly and surely evaluate the genotoxicity danger
for people’s health of CBRN agents. The use of the detector
will enable the
authorized personnel to estimate CBRN genotoxicity in a fast and sensitive
manner and thus will allow adequate design and successful application of the
most appropriate counter measures to secure respective polluted area.
