Sionex's microDMx technology consists of a micro-fabricated chip that operates at atmospheric pressure and acts as a programmable chemical filter allowing specific chemical and biological compounds to be detected and identified.
Currently OEMs such as Varian and Thermo Electron have incorporated Sionex's microDMx sensor systems into their end-user products for petrochemical and explosive trace detection applications.
Sionex also has microDMx evaluation units with a number of major OEM manufacturers and institutions which are looking at its potential use for process control, building security, chemical and biological threat detection as well as medical diagnostics and life science applications.
