Defiant Technologies Inc specializes in the design and production of miniature chemical analysis systems, specifically hand held gas chromatography systems. The firmâs primary product is an MEMS-based portable gas chromatography (GC) system, dubbed the FROG-4000. In about 5 minutes, the FROG micro-system is able to separate and detect benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylenes, TCE, PCE, and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in water, air and soil samples. The FROG-4000 then reports both the chemical name and concentration right to the screen, enabling lab quality results right on site where the samples are taken. The entire instrument weighs less than 5lbs and is made possible with cutting edge microfabricated technology that shrinks lab equipment down to low power battery operated components that donât require specialty gases to operate in the fie
