Growing interest in vaccination and diversity of new vaccines which can be administered as a single dose for timely response and prolonged immunity evoked use of absorbable polymers for developing controlled delivery systems. Although absorbable microspheres were explored for controlled delivery of vaccines, poor reproducibility of these systems created a need for a unique single-shot vaccine for ...

ARBUS, INC., WILL EXPLORE THE FEASIBILITY OF, AND SUBSEQUENTLY DEVELOP, A COMPUTERIZED PHARMACEUTICAL TRACKING SYSTEM FOR INVESTIGATIONAL DOSAGE FORMS. DURING PHASE I, ARBUS PERSONNEL WILL FULLY DEFINE WHAT PRODUCT DOCUMENTATION IS REQUIRED AND WHAT METHOD IS PREFERRED FOR THE SYSTEM USERS TO INTERACT WITH THE PROPOSED SYSTEM. KEY DEVELOPMENT DOCUMENTATION WILL BE DRAFTED CLARIFYING THE COMPUTER H ...

40765 November 13, 1996 Detection Limit, Inc. Cone Penetrometry, when coupled with a chemical analysis capability, is a powerful method for subsurface mapping of contaminants. However, the fluorescence techniques used to get the qualitative and quantitative chemical information do not have the ability to detect such nonfluorescent materials as chlorinate ...

The number of electrical/electronic devices in heavy-duty vehicles are increasing rapidly. Many of these devices require a "clean" source of power, which may theoretically be supplied by a separate ground. Currently, tractors operate on one of three grounding methods, the frame ground being the most common. However, the introduction of a separate ground into the trailer could lead to serious gr ...

N/A

Delta Data Systems, Inc. (DDS), a key developer and supplier of GIS technology to clients such as NASA, COE, NOS, etc. and Neptune Sciences, Inc. (NSI), a developer of the Navy Surf Model and other nearshore related products, will combine their expertise to develop a Marine Geographical Information Systems. Presently, no one method exists to adequately assess the coastal environment. Large datab ...

The proposal program will demonstrate packaging technology in an optical interconnect device consisting of at least 64 parallel interconnections between stages. The packaging will allow a 1 GHz bandwidth, micro-optoelectronic switch to survive in a 50 g (gravity) shock and vibration environment. OptiComp's enabling GaAs "Smart" optoelectronic interconnect modules will be used in the proposed opt ...
