##  [Interest soars for modular rifle stock](https://cbrneworld.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=81:interest-soars-for-modular-rifle-stock&catid=12)

 Written by CBRNe World Staff on 25 October 2018.

The company behind a versatile rifle stock that enables operatives to shoulder their firearms while wearing a ballistic helmet with the visor fully lowered has received orders and a high level of interest from law enforcement agencies worldwide since production was launched in September.

Riot and ballistic face shields are essential for law enforcement officers in active shooter and riot control scenarios. The problem with these face shields is that once fully lowered they interfere with the assault rifles and/or less-lethal baton round guns that armed officers are equipped with. This can also be an issue with law enforcement officers that need to wear respirators in certain tactical situations.

     ##  [New patrolling robots to eradicate petrol plant explosions](https://cbrneworld.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=82:new-patrolling-robots-to-eradicate-petrol-plant-explosions&catid=12)

 Written by CBRNe World Staff on 23 October 2018.

Autonomous robots fitted with tiny chemical sensors that listen to the 'sounds’ coming off gases will instantly detect gas leaks in petrochemical plants and pipelines to dramatically improve disaster responses.

The risk of a petrol plant explosion or a potential disaster on an oil refinery could be dramatically reduced thanks to a new generation of tiny chemical sensors that use light and sound to 'listen to’ gas leaks.Fitted to an autonomous patrolling robot, the tiny 'Photo-Acoustic’ gas sensors will be part of a wireless network continuously monitoring pipelines that can instantly identify petroleum, hydrogen sulphide, and a number of toxic gases, before alerting operatives in an oil rig or chemical plant.Current state of the art technologies can take anything up to 8 minutes per measurement and give off 'false positives’ when detecting gas leaks. However, a group of EU researchers are exploiting new techniques to positively identify a leak in milliseconds.

 Written by CBRNe World Staff on 23 October 2018.

On October 12, MyDefence co-hosted the event Electric Storm to demonstrate the capability of the latest MyDefence Counter UAS products for dismounted soldiers. The event featured a live demonstration of the detection and jamming capabilities of the WINGMAN 103 drone detector and the PITBULL Counter UAS jammer.

Last month, DeDrone announced the capability to detect drone swarms, and assuming the same conditions, MyDefence is now announcing drone swarm jamming capability, which was demonstrated at Electric Storm. During the event, five drone operators attempted to execute a coordinated drone attack. The coordinated attack was effectively neutralized using the MyDefence PITBULL Counter UAS jammer, and all drone operators lost control of their drones.

Counter terrorism officers in the UK are to be equipped with a fleet of 10 nuclear and radiological detection vehicles in a bid to trace weapons-grade materials in the UK.

The Home Office lodged a procurement notice last month stating that ministers are inviting bids for between five and 10 “modern vehicle-based gamma and neutron radiation detection systems for various national security and radiological and nuclear counter-terrorism activities.”

 Written by CBRNe World Staff on 17 October 2018.

Following a recent pre-clinical study, Inovio have announced that their Ebola Vaccine, INO-4212 provided 100% protection following a challenge with a lethal dose of the Ebola virus.

An article in the Journal of Infectious Diseases highlights that regimens of Inovio’s INO-4212 vaccine delivered by intramuscular administration provided 100% protection against a lethal Ebola challenge in all preclinical subjects. Impressively, just two injections of a simple, dose-sparing intradermal administration generated strong immunogenicity and provided 100% protection against a lethal Ebola challenge in a separate study. Scientists observed that vaccination induced long-term immune responses in monkeys that were detectable for at least one year after the final vaccination.

By looking at biomarkers in blood, scientists may be able to diagnose low-level opioid exposure as long as two weeks after the event, according to groundbreaking research at the U.S. Army Research, Development and Engineering Command Edgewood Chemical Biological Center (RDECOM ECBC).

These findings, presented in a paper by research biologist Trevor Glaros, Ph.D., and his team at RDECOM ECBC, forge new ground in the field, set an innovative example and provide novel insights to guide future research. Glaros noted that the research paper was recently accepted into Toxicological Sciences, considered the most influential research journal in the field of toxicology, following a vote by its editorial board.
