THE TECHNOLOGY OF REAL-TIME LIGHTNING GROUND STROKE MONITORING HAS ADVANCED SIGNIFICANTLY DURING THIS DECADE. THERE IS A CLEAR NEED FOR AN INTEGRATED NATIONAL LIGHTNING NETWORK. IN ORDER TO ACCOMPLISH THIS HOWEVER, TECHNIQUES MUST BE DEVELOPED TO COLLECT LIGHTNING DATA FROM GEOGRAPHICALLY SEPARATE (AND OFTEN OVERLAPPING) NETWORKS. NETWORK OPERATIONAL CHARACTERISTICS, SUCH AS PEAK DATA RATES, MUST ...

DESPITE THE DESIRABILITY AND OBVIOUS BENEFITS OF SUCH A PRODUCT, TRADITIONAL ENGINEERING APPROACHES HAVE RESULTED IN MANUFACTURING DESIGNS WHICH ARE PROHIBIITIVELY EXPENSIVE TO PRODUCE. AFTER CRITICAL EXAMINATION OF DOZENS OF ALTERNATIVE APPROACHES, NOVCOM'S PROPOSED PHASE I APPROACH OFFERS THE POTENTIAL TO ACHIEVE FULL PAGE ...

IN CHEMICAL AND BIOLOGICAL SYSTEMS, IRON IS BOTH UBIQUITOUS AND HIGHLY REACTIVE. IN A VARIETY OF CIRCUMSTANCES, THERE IS GREAT NEED FOR NEW APPROACHES TO THE REMOVAL OF IRON OR THE CONTROL OF ITS REACTIVITY. BIOMEDICAL FRONTIERS HAS PRODUCED A SERIES OF HIGH MOLECULAR WEIGHT IRON CHELATORS BASED ON DERIVATION OF A NUMBER OF SUBSTRATES WITH DEFER- OXAMINE B. THIS CHELATOR HAS AN EXTREMELY HIGH AFFI ...

INTRAOCULAR LENS IMPLANTS HAVE RETURNED VISION TO MANY CATARACT PATIENTS. THESE IMPLANTS PROVIDE VISUAL ACUITY WITHOUT THE DISTORTION OR MAGNIFICATION THAT CAN RESULT FROMWEARING THICK-LENSED SPECTACLES OR CONTACT LENSES. HOWEVER,AS WITH ALL OTHER IMPLANTABLE DEVICES, THERE ARE PROBLEMS WITH THE INTERACTION OF THE SYNTHETIC LENSES WITH EYE TISSUES. INADVERTENT CONTACT BETWEEN THE LENS AND THE CORN ...

BECAUSE OF THIS, MANY EMPLOYERS (INCLUDING THE U.S. MILITARY) ARE BEGINNING TO DEMAND THAT WORKERS SUSPE ...

BIO-METRIC SYSTEMS, INC. PROPOSES TO DEVELOP A SEMIQUANTITATIVE, NONLABORATORY ENZYME IMMUNOASSAY THAT IS EXPECTED TO BE SENSITIVE, RAPID, AND CONVENIENT TO USE. THIS IMMUNOASSAY WILL REQUIRE NO INSTRUMENTATION AND IS EXPECTED TO HAVE A SINGLE-STEP PROTOCOL: SIMPLY DIP THE APPARATUS IN THE SAMPLE, WAIT A PRESCRIBED TIME, AND OBSERVETHE RESULT. THE QUANTITY OF ANALYTE PRESENT IN THE TEST SAMPLE IS ...
