Fraunhofer SCAI and Fraunhofer ITEM
Publications
P.R.I.T.® technologies have already been used successfully to explore a broad range of different problems. We will be happy to provide you with details from projects that do not fall under confidentiality agreements.
Investigation of airborne substances in-vitro, ex-vivo, in-vivo, and in man with all methods available has been the focus of research activities at the Fraunhofer ITEM since the institute was founded in 1981.
The patented P.R.I.T.® technologies as one of the institute’s latest continuous development projects have already been put to use in different studies and tests. Please see below for references.
