The SBIR.gov award data files now contain the required fields to calculate award timeliness for individual awards or for an agency or branch. Additional information on calculating award timeliness is available on the Data Resource Page.

  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 ...

  2. 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 ...

  3. 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 ...

  4. High Thermal Regeneration Magnetic Induction Food Processing

    SBC: PROVE IT, LLC            Topic: 85

    Magnetic induction heat generation and exchange is a good candidate to replace steam heat both immediately and More especially as petroleum energy supplies become more rare and costly. Systems with 98% efficiency of electric power to food heat conversion efficiency appear possible. The prototype will build, gather data, and optimize the MIHGE system and design a commercial prototype from the data.

  5. Pennycress:"A wonder weed to wonder fuel:Developing Commercial Farming Practices for Pennycress"

    SBC: ARVENS TECHNOLOGY, INC.            Topic: 88

    Pennycress is a non-food member of the mustard family that is grown as a winter annual producing seeds containing 36% oil or twice that of soybeans. This oil can be extracted and converted to high quality biodiesel fuel while the remaining de-oiled presscake biomass can be converted to other energy products. Planted in the fall after corn harvest, Pennycress is then harvested in the spring before ...

  6. Most efficient ways to aggregate, store, pack and ship local food from farms to regional centers: Illinois Pilot Project

    SBC: IRV & SHELLY''S FRESH PICKS            Topic: 89

    This project proposes to improve the infrastructure for moving local food from farms to regional cities. Limited capacity for post-harvest handling, packing and transporting farm products is an obstacle to further growth in the local food market in Chicago. The goal of this project is to find ways to alleviate these bottlenecks so the many benefits of local food, principally to public health, the ...

  7. Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering For Field

    SBC: American Research Corporation of Virginia            Topic: N/A

    The use of sub-therapeutic concentrations of anti-microbial agents in animal feed has contributed to theproductivity of the U.S. meat and dairy industries by preventing infectious diseases, by decreasing theamount of feed required and by increasing the rate of animal weight gain. However, failure to observerecommended practices of drug withdrawal can result in concentrations of antibiotic residue ...

  8. Development Of A Ready-to-assemble

    SBC: Blue Ridge Timberwrights            Topic: N/A

    The ready-to-assemble (RTA) construction system is a new method for assembling wood structuresbuilt from the following engineered wood products: parallel strand lumber (PSL), laminated strandlumber (LSL), and laminated veneer lumber (LVL). The RTA system is designed for rapid assemblyby small crews of unskilled labor using common hand tools. The design of the RTA systemincorporates engineered w ...

  9. A Multiple Antigen Direct Elisa For Diagnosing

    SBC: Commonwealth Biotechnologies, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    Equine infectious anemia virus (EIAV) is a retrovirus that causes a chronic infection in horses. In theabsence of a vaccine, the control of this disease depends on the diagnosis and elimination of infectedhorses. Currently approved diagnostic procedures utilize agar gel diffusion (AGID), or enzyme-linkedimmunosorbant (ELISA) methodologies to detect antibodies against the virus in horse sera as e ...

  10. Gravel Mulch Buffers

    SBC: Daniel B. Stephens & Associates, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    Water quality and soil erosion are high priority issues for U.S. agriculture. In more humid areas of theU.S., vegetation filter strips have proven to be an effective method of reducing erosion and improvingwater quality. Filter strips are less effective in the West due to sparser vegetation and more variablerainfall. In addition, establishment of vegetation is more difficult in many western wat ...
