20130248713 | METHOD OF LOCAL ELECTRO-MAGNETIC FIELD ENHANCEMENT OF TERAHERTZ (THZ) RADIATION IN SUB-WAVELENGTH REGIONS AND IMPROVED COUPLING OF RADIATION TO MATERIALS THROUGH THE USE OF THE DISCONTINUITY EDGE EFFECT - A method and apparatus for enhanced THz radiation coupling to molecules, includes the steps of depositing a test material near the discontinuity edges of a slotted member, and enhancing the THz radiation by transmitting THz radiation through the slots. The molecules of the test material are illuminated by the enhanced THz radiation that has been transmitted through the slots, thereby producing an increased coupling of EM radiation in the THz spectral range to said material. The molecules can be bio-molecules, explosive materials, or species of organisms. The slotted member can be a semiconductor film, a metallic film, in particular InSb, or layers thereof. THz detectors sense near field THz radiation that has been transmitted through said slots and the test material. | 09-26-2013 |
20140070102 | Terahertz Spectroscopy Characterization with High Spectral and Spatial Resolution for Biological and Chemical Sensing and Method of Use - Biological cells or spores are analyzed by using enhanced THz coupling to molecules by depositing a test material in a channel of a microfluidic chip using near field sensing of sub-THz radiation from the molecules. The THz radiation is enhanced by transmitting THz radiation through slots in the chip, illuminating molecules of the test material with the enhanced THz radiation transmitted through the slots. A spectroscopic signature of the test material is generated, and a database of signatures of materials is generated. The test material is identified by comparing the signature of the test material with signatures of materials in the database. | 03-13-2014 |

20140328856 | TREATMENT OF ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE SUBPOPULATIONS WITH POOLED IMMUNOGLOBULIN G - The present invention provides, among other aspects, methods for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease in a subject in need thereof, the method including administration of a therapeutically effective amount of a pooled human immunoglobulin G (IgG) composition to a subject with moderately severe Alzheimer's disease, a subject carrying an ApoE4 allele, or both, where the amount of pooled human IgG is from 300 mg/kg to 800 mg/kg body weight of the subject per two week period, and where the amount is administered in one or more doses during the two week period after initiation of a therapeutic regimen. Also provided, are methods for selecting a treatment regimen for a subject with Alzheimer's disease, including diagnosing the severity of the Alzheimer's disease, determining if the subject carries an APOE4 allele, or both, and assigning a treatment regimen including administration of pooled human immunoglobulin G and/or an anti-beta amyloid monoclonal antibody. | 11-06-2014 |

20080237555 | Scorch prevention in flexible polyurethane foams - Compositions are provided for alleviating or preventing discoloration, known as “scorching”, in flame-retarded flexible polyurethane foams. The anti-scorch compositions contain combinations of antioxidant agents, epoxy compounds, organic phosphites—alone or in combination with metal salts of carboxylic acids. The compositions are useful, for example, for polyurethane foams retarded with aliphatic or aromatic phosphorus-based flame retardants, or with halogen-containing flame retardants. | 10-02-2008 |

20140303271 | FLAME RETARDANTS, PROCESSES FOR THEIR PREPARATION AND USES THEREOF IN POLYURETHANE AND POLYISOCYANURATE FOAMS - The invention provides pentabromobenzyl moiety containing hydroxy-functional compounds which are useful as flame-retardants in flexible and rigid polyurethane foams and also in rigid polyisocyanurate foams. Processes for preparing the compounds, polyurethane and polyisocyanurate foams containing the compounds are also provided by the invention. | 10-09-2014 |
20140378565 | FLAME RETARDANT COMPOSITION - A liquid flame retardant composition which comprises one or more flame retarding agents, which are the epoxides obtainable by reacting tetrabromobisphenol A with epichlorohydrin and their end-capped derivatives represented by Formula (1) is provided. The liquid composition is especially useful in the preparation of rigid polyurethane foams. | 12-25-2014 |
