NEW YORK (GenomeWeb News) — US Genomics today said it will work with aerospace and defense giant Northrop Grumman to develop and market US Genomics’ biodetection technology for the Department of Homeland Security.

 

US Genomics has already received around $23 million in funding from the Homeland Security to develop a prototype of the instrument, which uses the company’s single molecule-detection technology to find “a wide range of pathogens and toxins.”
