  2. Evaluation of Jatropha curcas by-products

    SBC: ALTERNATIVE AVIATION FUELS LLC            Topic: N/A

    Biofuels have a strategic value in reducing our dependence on foreign oil and the ability to increase our energy security. Growing and processing oil-rich biomass into biofuel in the U.S. would contribute to reduce this dependence. The objective of this project is to evaluate the conversion of oilseeds that could be grown in the U.S. and U.S. territories into a substitute of hydrocarbon fuel. One ...

  3. Forest pest risk analysis in dynamic landscapes

    SBC: Applied Biomathematics Inc            Topic: N/A

    Forest insect pests cause significant economic and ecological damage every year. Dramatically increased pest activity in recent years suggests that changing climate conditions will inflate the uncertainty associated with pest risk assessments. Advances in forest pest risk analysis methodology are needed to allow managers to better explore the consequences and value of alternative management scenar ...

  4. PCR Based Diagnostic for Species Identification of Red Snapper and Other Commercial Snapper Species

    SBC: APPLIED FOOD TECHNOLOGIES, INC            Topic: N/A

    Red snapper, Lutjanus campechanus, is one of the most economically important fish species in the Gulf of Mexico. While there are numerous species of snapper marketed worldwide, in the United States L. campechanus is known as the true red snapper and the only species that can legally be labeled simply "Red Snapper". Another snapper species, Lutjanus purpureus, which is harvested in the South Atlant ...

  5. Rapid enzyme-based assays to detect banned substances in food

    SBC: BIOO SCIENTIFIC CORPORATION            Topic: N/A

    It is important to test the food supply for known toxic or banned substances which can impinge public safety. While a number of high-throughput tests have been developed to screen the food supply for higher molecular weight banned substances, it has been difficult to develop methods to comprehensively screen the food supply for low molecular weight banned substances such as histamine or pentachlor ...

  6. A novel process for converting wood chips into improved composite boards, chemcials, and fuels.

    SBC: BIOPULPING INTERNATIONAL, INC.            Topic: N/A

    The Medium Density Fiberboard or MDF industry in North America is facing many challenges, largely as a result of the weak housing market. Residential construction is 20 percent below 2006 levels and it is not likely that an improvement will happen before mid 2008. Rising imports of secondary wood products from China and other low costs countries also have a detrimental impact on the North American ...

  7. New Crop Opportunity for Semiarid Dryland Production Systems

    SBC: BLUE SUN BIODIESEL LLC            Topic: N/A

    Situation More than 63% of the petroleum we need daily is imported, with steady increases projected. Our national security is threatened by this growing dependence on foreign oil, and we need to reverse the trend. A key segment of the nation's farmers in the Central High Plains region of the western U.S. (with access to nearly 6 million marginal dryland acres) can play an important role in this ef ...

  8. MWIR Spatial Light Modulators for Hyperspectral Image Projectors

    SBC: BOULDER NONLINEAR SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: N/A

    The proposed effort is to build a high resolution, high speed spatial light modulator (SLM) to be used in infrared (IR) spectral projectors. An IR spectral projector produces programmable spectra by dispersing light onto a programmable array, currently digital micromirror devices (DMDs), which either transmit or block selected components of the light. the light is then recombined to form complex s ...

  10. Lactation Modeling Tools and Information Base for Dairy Herd Management and Research

    SBC: DAIRY VETERINARIANS GROUP            Topic: N/A

    MilkBot(R) will provide enabling technology for a wide variety of methods applicable to dairy research and management. Increasing the sensitivity of our ability to detect changes in milk production may lower the sample size needed for research projects, or improve the ability to detect a response. In field situations the same tools will help in detection and quantification of response to intention ...
