Now every soldier can detect uranium or plutonium in the field
What if every soldier could carry frontline nuclear material screening capability in their pocket?
CodeNu™ dry wipes were designed specifically for rugged operational environments where immediate contamination awareness matters.
Each dry wipe:
- weighs less than 10 grams,
- requires virtually no training burden,
- fits easily into standard field kit,
- and provides rapid indicative screening capability directly at the point of need.
Vehicles. Equipment. Weapons. Clothing. Personnel. Operational surfaces.
In many operational environments, frontline personnel currently have little or no practical capability to rapidly assess whether uranium or plutonium contamination may be present.
CodeNu™ changes that.
Potential applications include:
- screening suspect vehicles or equipment,
- checking weapons or operational surfaces,
- identifying contamination migration on clothing or skin,
- screening hands to indicate potential handling of nuclear materials,
- and rapidly assessing areas of operational concern before escalation.
Importantly, CodeNu™ is not intended to replace specialist nuclear response teams.
It is designed to support them.
Imagine an operational environment where every soldier instructed to stop and wipe the nearest suspect item could provide immediate frontline contamination indication.
If contamination is indicated, specialist nuclear search and response teams can then be deployed more efficiently and with greater operational awareness.
That means:
- better use of specialist resources,
- improved operational visibility,
- faster frontline awareness,
- and practical contamination screening capability where previously none existed.
Dry wipe systems are particularly well suited to rugged field deployment because they minimise potential environmental interferences and can be carried and deployed virtually anywhere.
The operational logic is simple:
Complex operations cannot always wait for laboratory workflows or specialist deployment before frontline decisions need to be made.
CodeNu™ provides immediate onsite indicative screening capability where operational decisions actually occur.
