Our Mission

Serim Research Corporation is an independent research, development and manufacturing company that specializes in innovative dry reagent test strip technology used in the Discern® HME kits. Serim test strips provide the advantages of being able to analyze samples at the point-of-use using a simple procedure that can be performed with little training, no special equipment and avoids the inconvenience of storing, handling, and mixing hazardous liquid reagents. Serim’s new Discern™ HME Detection Kit identifies and distinguishes compounds used in HMEs, such as nitrate-based fertilizers and peroxide, chlorate and perchlorate compounds. The point-of-use test is easy-to-use, light weight, cost-effective, non-hazardous and yields accurate results rapidly

Serim® Discern® HME Detection System

The Serim® Discern® HME Detection Kit provides a quick and convenient test method that detects and distinguishes between ammonium nitrate, urea nitrate, urea, calcium ammonium nitrate, and calcium nitrate, in addition to oxidizers such as chlorates, bromates, peroxides (hydrogen peroxide, HMTD, TATP) and perchlorates (Tannerite®, flash powder). This is achieved by combining the responses of multiple test pads and results are obtained within 60 seconds. The HME Detection Kit is to be used with uncontaminated, clean water.

The soldier will use this fast and reliable method for quickly screening unknown powdered / prilled substances for explosives which can be achieved in one step (using only one unknown solid sample wetted with water), by combining the responses of specific test pads for oxidizers, nitrate, and perchlorate.

This unique kit which weighs only 2.3 ounces and provides accurate results can be read visually or with the new DISCERN HME iOS app.  The app electronically captures and stores test results, including date and time, providing documentation for future use.
