A -- LAWRENCE LIVERMORE NATIONAL LABORATORY SEEKS PARTNERSHIPS WITH INDUSTRY TO COMMERCIALIZE AND MARKET THE MINIATURE ION CYCLOTRON RESONANCE MASS SPECTROMETER POC: For further information, contact Industrial Partnerships & Commercialization at (510) 423-3139. Announcement: The Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), operated by the University of California under contract with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), is seeking U.S. companies interested in commercializing the LLNL Miniature Ion Cyclotron Resonance Mass Spectrometer. Laboratory development of this 1995 R&D 100 award-winning technology is now at the point where licensing and commercialization is the next logical step. This invention has the next logical step. This invention has the potential to allow, for the first time, in-situ monitoring of air streams for contamination products from 3 AMU through 1000 AMU with unit mass resolution and less than 100 atom sensitivities. Fields of use include but are not limited to: pre-and post-manufacturing processes, effluent monitoring, environmental air sampling, and remediation monitoring. This fully self-contained unit weighs less than 44 pounds, is contained in a briefcase measuring 13'' x 18'' x 6'' and contains a user-friendly PC based computational system. Design of the entire package has been completed including the software and electronics. It may be utilized as either an untended, in-situ sensor package or as a laboratory-based instrument. Partnerships will be coordinated through the LLNL Industrial Partnerships and Commercialization Office, LLNL is seeking licensees with a demonstrated ability to bring such inventions to the market. Moving critical technology beyond the Laboratory to the commercial world helps our U.S. licensees gain a competitive edge in the marketplace. The University of California's Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory can license technology through exclusive or nonexclusive licensing agreements, as appropriate. All projects are conducted under policies relating to the strict nondisclosure of company proprietary information. Note: This is not a procurement. If you are interested in working with LLNL on the Miniature Ion Cyclotron Resonance Mass Spectrometer, please respond in writing within 30 days of this announcement. Note that any or all of the portions of this patented technology can be licensed, or developed further through partnerships. Provide a brief (two-page maximum) description of company history, experience in the field, present position in the market, and ability to commercialize this technology. Please send this information to Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Industrial Partnerships and Commercialization Office, PO Box 808, L-795, Livermore, CA 94551, Attn: CBD97-002.CT.
