Lower carbon dioxide emissions from coal-fueled power plants possible with technology development

...erstanding for companies to use this technology in prototype and commercial scale plants,?said Rochelle. “With the current mix of new power plants, by the year 2030,?he said, “about two-thirds of all carbon dioxide emissions will come from existing coal-fueled power plants, so it is critical that we demons...

Experimental vaccine given during pregnancy reduces stillbirths from common virus

...ICHD, the NIH institute that funded the study. "A prototype vaccine is the first step in protecting newborns against the most common viral disease of newborns in the developed world." The study appears in the March 15, 2007, issue of the Journal of Infectious Diseases. Mark Schleiss, M.D., American Leg...

New sensor detects gaseous chemical weapon surrogates in 45 seconds

...thick. A conceptual design for a battery-operated, prototype QPAS sensor, which includes 10 pairs of QCLs and tuning forks, would fit into a briefcase that is 12 inches long, 12 inches wide and 6 inches high ?and the entire thing would weigh less than 15 pounds. In addition, the instrument can operate unattend...

The origin of the brain lies in a worm

...has preserved many ancestral features, including a prototype invertebrate CNS." Arendt and his group investigated how the developing CNS in Platynereis embryos gets subdivided into the regions that later on give rise to the different CNS structures. The regions are defined by the unique combination of regula...

In-shell vaccine for chick disease

...hile they are still in their egg. A pre-hatching prototype vaccine virus which provides immunity to IBV has been developed by scientists at the Institute for Animal Health (IAH) and vaccine company Intervet UK. It can be delivered to chicks still in the egg (in-ovo) using robotic 'vaccinators'. IBV is th...

Students invent protective pouch to enhance cell therapy

..." Along with other undergraduate projects, this prototype was unveiled May 2 at the university’s Biomedical Engineering Design Day showcase. The Johns Hopkins Technology Transfer staff has applied for a provisional patent. Animal testing is expected to begin this summer. If it is successful, human trials wo...
