Implant Sciences wraps up air cargo screening trial in Boston

IMPLANT SCIENCES Corporation, a technology supplier of systems and sensors for homeland security and defence markets, has announced the completion of its air cargo screening trial in conjunction with East Coast Airport Services (ECAS).

The trial is part of a larger air cargo pilot programme being conducted to provide insight to the company and its customers as they develop effective and efficient operational protocols to satisfy the requirements of US Public Law 110-53 "Implementing Recommendations of the 9/11 Commission Act of 2007."

"Implant Science's air cargo pilot programme, combined with ongoing verification and validation activities and the recent Department of Homeland Security SAFETY Act designation of the Quantum Sniffer as a Qualified Anti-Terrorism Technology, will help to ensure the company's success in air cargo screening markets," said Todd Silvestri, vice president of technology for Implant Sciences, in a company statement.

The trial was conducted in ECAS's air cargo screening facilities at Boston Logan International Airport. The agreement to conduct the trial was facilitated by the Massachusetts Port Authority (Massport), which owns and operates Logan Airport.
