From unknown to action: Field identification and response for radiological and chemical threats

An eBook about technologies and methods to enhance safety in military, defense, and CBRN operations

This compendium of articles on the methods and means to handle chemical or radiological threats in the field examines how chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) teams, explosive ordinance disposal (EOD) technicians, and other military and defense teams can move from uncertainty to confident action. It explores how the use of advanced portable technologies enables rapid detection of potential hazards, chemical identification, radiological reconnaissance, isotope identification, and personal radiation dose monitoring. For those responding to potentially hazardous unknown conditions, the information in this publication can help support safer decision-making, reduce unnecessary exposure, and maintain mission readiness in high-pressure environments.

You can gain insights about these topics and more:

Learn how military and defense teams can assess unknown chemicals in closed containers, exposed spills, and operational environments.
Understand how dual-technology Raman and FTIR workflows can support faster, more confident chemical identification in the field.
Explore how EOD technicians and CBRN teams can use repeatable workflows to detect-and-assess, scan, confirm, and act on suspected chemical threats and explosive mixtures.
Learn about Thermo Fisher Scientific’s specialized instrumentation for chemical identification, radiation detection, isotope identification, survey monitoring, and personal dosimetry.

Complete the form to access the eBook and learn about protecting responders and the greater public from radiological and chemical threats.
