MX908 Specifications for Corrections
MX908 provides trace identification (nanogram/invisible level) of many drugs commonly smuggled into corrections facilities.
Multi-Threat Detection
MX908ยฎ leverages high-pressure mass spectrometryโข (HPMS) to deliver dramatically enhanced sensitivity and broader threat category coverage. It provides identification across a broad range of drugs such as synthetic opioids, phenethylamines, cathinones, and cannabinoids.
Reliable Trace Analysis
MX908 provides trace identification (nanogram/invisible level) of many drugs commonly smuggled into corrections facilities. The ability to detect and identify invisible amounts of drugs allows the MX908 to defeat common smuggling tactics like spraying substances onto paper and mail. Accurate and rapid trace level identification also reduces exposure risk to officers and inmates by enabling exterior sampling of packages and ultimately keeping illicit drugs out of the facility.
Missions:
- Mail screening
- Unknown powder identification
- Overdose response
Threat Categories:
- Fentanyls/synthetic opioids
- Phenethylamines
- Cathinones
- Cannabinoids
- CWAs, Explosives, TICs, Precursors

MX908 Advantages:
- Trace identification of many drugs including: fentanyl, fentanyl analogs, methamphetamine, synthetic cathinones, and synthetic cannabinoids
- MX908 provides excellent target coverage of common cannabinoids, cathinones, and phenethylamines often seized in corrections facilities
- Mail screening for trace identification of drugs sprayed onto paper or delivered by mail
- Increased officer safety by enabling non-intrusive sampling
- Accurate and rapid results allow officers to act quickly and with confidence
- Reachback analysis of mass spectra
Mission Modes Use Specialized Software To Optimize Performance For Specific Mission Objectives
Drug Hunter is a mission mode for the detection of drugs such as: fentanyl and fentanyl-analogs, along with other high priority controlled substances.
Drug Hunter unlocks detection capabilities for more than 2000 fentanyl variants.
This Mission Mode future-proofs your MX908 against the everchanging fentanyl analog landscape with a novel classification algorithm that sets MX908 apart from any library-based techniques.
