This item is listed by NSN on the USAF approved medical allowance standard for MC-CBRN assemblages in accordance with procedures outlined in Air Force Mandatory Procedure 41-209.

The manufacturer of this particular item does not have a GSA schedule nor do they have authorized distributors. Efforts were made to order this item through the DLA MMC but MDG at Yokota does not have the authority to order them through that contract.

Market research will be maintained for this item and efforts will be made to procure this item through the Medical Master Catalog for future procurements.
