WILMINGTON, MA — Implant Sciences Corporation (otcqb:IMSC) (pinksheets:IMSC), a high technology supplier of systems and sensors for homeland security markets, today announced it has received notification of vendor eligibility in the Air Cargo Screening Qualification Test Qualification Group 2 from the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) for its Quantum Sniffer(TM) QS-B220 benchtop explosives trace detector. TSA qualification is required before any explosives detection device can be commercially sold for use in air cargo screening facilities shipping to or from U.S. airports.

In order to receive vendor eligibility status, Implant Sciences submitted a comprehensive Qualification Data Package (QDP) detailing the QS-B220’s performance metrics to TSA. Preparation of the QDP included collecting and analyzing thousands of samples in real-world environments, including active certified cargo screening facilities. Future steps in completing the Air Cargo Screening Qualification Testing will involve TSA confirming the QS-B220’s operating performance to prove the system meets their specifications.

“Notification of eligibility is a significant milestone for Implant Sciences. While this does not imply qualification of the QS-B220, we are confident that our system will perform to TSA’s requirements and successfully complete the qualification process,” stated Glenn D. Bolduc, President and CEO of Implant Sciences.
