When soldiers are sent into active warzones these days, each and every one of them has some kind of CBRN response training. Should a large-scale known or unknown CBRN attack happen, the soldiers would be ready to carry out decontamination (removal or neutralization of contamination of hazardous materials) of themselvs and then continue to decontaminate any exposed equipment and infrastructure to continue military operations.
The decontamination of the soldiers and warzone equipment is the main priority of the military in order to minimize casualties and restore the combat unit to capacity.
However, when an attack involves civilians, they also become a priority.
First Line Technology is pleased to announce the launch of http://store.firstlinetech.com, which will provide customers with the opportunity to learn more about First Line Technology’s most popular products and purchase them with ease.

![US Army Considers Using [Texas] Tech Professor's Patent](http://www.firstlinetech.com/media/news/id194/FBTWiping.gif)
The U.S. Army is currently evaluating Fibertect, a Texas Tech professor’s invention and a Tech patent.
Seshadri Ramkumar, associate professor and inventor of Fibertect, said the U.S. Army is looking for a product to replace M-291, a powder technology being used, and his product is one of many technologies being evaluated.
“Fibertect, basically as the name says, (is) the product of a fiber that protects,” Ramkumar said.
A new version of Fibertect®, a nonwoven decontamination wipe created by researchers at Texas Tech University, has proven itself more viable at cleaning up a nerve chemical surrogate than the decontamination substance currently used by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD), which is currently being phased out.
Seshadri Ramkumar, lead investigator on the project and inventor of Fibertect®, said that when compared to the powdered decontaminant called M-291, the all-cotton version of nonwoven wipe paired with an activated carbon center cleaned up not only the chemical surrogate to the nerve gas soman, but also adsorbed its vapors five times better.
