  1. Development of Novel Calcium Receptor Based Mineral Supplementation Technologies For Inland Shrimp Aquaculture

    SBC: VIRGINIA COBIA FARMS            Topic: 87

    Recent studies have demonstrated the importance of ionic composition of water and diets used in inland marine shrimp aquaculture. We propose to develop a feed and/or water additive approach to address this issue by using our knowledge of calcium-sensing receptors (CaSRs) in crustaceans and their roles in osmoregulation, nutrient sensing, and gowth. By supplementing diets with specific CaSR modulat ...

  3. Traceability of Shrimp Utilizing Trace Elemental Analysis

    SBC: APPLIED FOOD TECHNOLOGIES, INC            Topic: 85

    Globalization of our seafood supply, the lack of international standards, and the numerous reported instances of fraudulent labeling of seafood products has reduced consumer confidence in seafood across the country. In addition, concerns of this rampant mislabeling of seafood products, which could lead to seafood safety issues, have prompted many to look at traceability as a means to track seafood ...

  4. Resequencing Microarray-based Diagnostic Assay for High Priority Swine Infectious Diseases

    SBC: TESSARAE, LLC            Topic: 83

    National swine health statistics indicate a growing death rate due to respiratory disease in both the nursery and grower/finished phases in swine (Swine 2006, APHIS, USDA). In 2006, veterinary diagnostic testing revealed that Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome was the most prevalent of the diagnosed diseases in breeding herd and nursery pigs (Swine 2006, APHIS, USDA). Additional disease ...

  5. Selection and Genomic Characterization of Honey Bees Resistant to Viral Pathogens

    SBC: Bee Power, LP            Topic: 82

    Honey bee populations, especially managed honey bees, have been adversely affected by Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD), Varroa destructor mite infestations and viral pathogens. A variety of viral pathogens have been identified as potential factors contributing to CCD, and viral pathogens are vectored by Varroa mites. Honey bee viruses, including deformed wing virus (DWV), cause individual honey bee ...

  6. Sequential injection enzymatic assay for melamine detection in food.

    SBC: BIOO SCIENTIFIC CORPORATION            Topic: 85

    Protecting the integrity of the nation's food from contamination by toxins is a very serious challenge for our country. Melamine, in particular, is a toxic substance which has recently emerged as a serious threat to the safety of the U.S. food supply. Recent, widely-reported food and feed contaminations by melamine have fueled an increased demand for improved assays to screen the food supply for m ...

  7. Modifying Lignin Structure in Poplar for Enhanced Biomass Conversion

    SBC: Edenspace Systems Corporation            Topic: 81

    For environmental and energy security purposes, the United States has established mandates for the production of cellulosic biofuels at a level of 100 million gallons in 2010, rising to 16 billion gallons by 2022. There has recently been significant interest in ensuring that the feedstocks for biofuel production be sustainable, and woody biomass has great potential to be. Forests have been shown t ...

  8. High Char Yield Multifunctional Textile Finishes

    SBC: LUNA INNOVATIONS INCORPORATED            Topic: N/A

    A need exists for advances in non toxic treatments for cover and barrier fabrics. Since polybrominated materials have been banned in many European countries and the production of a number of brominated additives terminated in the U.S. as well, future technologies must focus on non-halogenated treatments. In general, non-halogenated treatments (phosphates and borates) are not durable to aqueous sol ...

  9. Renewable Energy Aquaculture Aeration For Small and Mid-Sized Farms

    SBC: HAWAII FISH COMPANY INC.            Topic: 812

    Low dissolved oxygen (DO) levels are the most frequent cause of catastrophic fish mortalities in aquaculture farming, resulting in substantial dollar losses of valuable aquaculture crops annually. To address this problem, the U.S. aquaculture industry most often uses floating paddlewheels and/or aspirating aerators for nightly or continuous aeration and circulation of aquafarm waters. However, pow ...

  10. Innovative Marketing of Hawaiian Pongee

    SBC: HAWAII FISH COMPANY INC.            Topic: 89

    Pongee (Channa sp.) are an esteemed freshwater food fish in Asia, Hawaii, and domestic Asian seafood markets. Traditional customer preference is for a live product. However, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service banned the import and interstate transport of live pongee in 2002. Therefore, the only options to market Hawaii-grown pongee outside of its established range on Oahu, Hawaii are as fresh chil ...
