Abstract:During Phase I, Advanced Turbomachinery Solutions designed andtested a proof-of-concept, reverse rotation capable brush seal.All project objectives were met successfully. The new, hybridseal design can be retrofit into existing gas turbine designs,within the present geometric envelope, utilizing the… more
Abstract:Great strides have been made in developing diagnostic systems for detecting and identifying specific pathogens and their toxins. However, these systems may be too specific and unable to detect newly emerging pathogens whose immunological or genetic profile is different than the normal complement of… more
Abstract:Conventional fluorescence-activated cell sorters (FACSs) are widely used to study eukaryotic cell populations. Although they provide impressively efficient sorting, they are costly, mechanically complex, and require large sample volumes and trained personnel for operation and maintenance. In… more
Abstract:The occurrence of causative agents such as Cryptosporidium parvum and other pathogens in water supplies presents a critical issue. Transmitted through water and animals, these organisms provide a reservoir of infection, which results in the excretion of the environmentally stable cysts or oocysts… more

Abstract:Agave BioSystems, in collaboration with Professor George Malliaras of Cornell University, proposes to develop a unique and innovative biosensor based on induced luminescence of captured BW bacterial agents and organic light emitting diode (OLED)technology. The system would use an array of… more
Abstract:Biology provides a vast number of examples of nanostructures produced at a level of precision that is superior to those that we can produce in the laboratory. The diversity of naturally occurring S-layers suggests that the nature of these self-assembledstructures is genetically controlled and can… more
Abstract:DESCRIPTION (Applicant's Abstract): The overall goal of this research proposal
is to determine the effectiveness of recombinant human lactoferrin (rhLF) for
treating gastrointestinal (GI) disorders. This Phase II proposal will focus on
the ability of rhLF to treat the 01 side… more
Abstract:The goal of this project is to develop a collection of components that can be added to standard power wheelchairs to convert them into smart wheelchairs. Wheelchairs equipped with the Smart Wheelchair System will be able to assist users in two distinct ways: as a mobility aid, the system will… more
Abstract:BioTechnical Communications is proposing to develop a "Culturally Targeted Health Information Network" ("the Network") that expands African-Americans' access to credible information about cancer. The Network will consist of two components: (1) A syndicated radio program that reaches over 1 million… more
Abstract:Rural communities benefit economically from revenues generated by outdoor recreationists. Participation in outdoor recreation provides numerous physical, social and health benefits. This project could increase the numbers of people who camp, and bring in revenue to rural areas by offering improved… more
Company:CHK GROUP INCAgency/Program/Year/Phase:USDA / SBIR / 2001 / 2
Abstract:This proposal addresses the recent EPA ruling, published in the Federal Register (January 22, 2001), to lower the As levels in drinking waters from the current Maximum Contaminants levels (MCL) of 50 ppb to 10 ppb. Furthermore, it has reported that 2,300 groundwater systems in small communities… more

Abstract:The Office of Naval Research has recognized that small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are particularly useful for obtaining meteorological and environmental observations in the battle space. The Aerosonde UAV has for several years provided meteorologicalobservations to the global weather community,… more
Abstract:The primary objective of CU Aerospace's Phase II work will be to experimentally characterize the ElectriCOIL flow using advanced diagnostics and to demonstrate lasing of this electrically assisted chemical iodine laser. CU Aerospace (CUA) and theUniversity of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC)… more

Abstract:This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II project will create web-based courseware featuring software (the "Urn Sampler") built around the simulation/resampling method in statistics which focuses on the process of formulating a statistical test. This courseware will also feature a… more
Abstract:DESCRIPTION: It is now standard practice to incorporate formal sequential
monitoring procedures into the design and conduct of long term randomized
clinical trials. Interim monitoring provides an advance determination of
efficacy and safety so that a data and safety… more

Abstract:DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Logistic regression is a very popular
model for the analysis of binary data with widespread applicability in the
physical, behavioral and biomedical sciences. Parameter inference for this
model is usually based on maximizing the… more
Abstract:DESCRIPTION (applicant's abstract): Many PCR analyses, particularly those with
rare targets or those with compromised DNA templates (such as forensic
analyses), benefit from a hot start. In a normal (room temperature) start, the
primers can prime at non-specific sequences,… more
There are several categories such as “By Agency”, “By Year”, “By State” etc.
Select a checkbox within a category to refine your search results.
Each of your selections is listed in the “Narrow Search Filters” bar. You can uncheck these selections to remove them.
Search for Either Criteria
When you select multiple values within a category, the results will include values that match either of the selections.
For example, selecting “2005” and “2007” in the “By Year” category will display results that include either 2005 OR 2007 in the results.
Narrowing the Search Results
You can refine your search results across categories. To narrow down your results, select multiple values across different categories. The results will only include values that match the selections across the categories.
For example, selecting “2005” in the “By Year” category and “NASA” in the “By Agency” category will only display the results that contain both “2005” AND “NASA” in the results.
