  • Method and apparatus for selective capture of gas phase analytes using metal ?-diketonate polymers
    Patent number: 7964028
    Abstract: A process and sensor device are disclosed that employ metal ?-diketonate polymers to selectively capture gas-phase explosives and weaponized chemical agents in a sampling area or volume. The metal ?-diketonate polymers can be applied to surfaces in various analytical formats for detection of: improvised explosive devices, unexploded ordinance, munitions hidden in cargo holds, explosives, and chemical weapons in public areas.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 25, 2009
    Date of Patent: June 21, 2011
    Assignee: Battelle Memorial Institute
    Inventor: Scott D. Harvey

  • Farnesenes and related substances for mouse control
    Patent number: 5252326
    Abstract: The propagation of mouse population in a given area of actual or potential mice infestation is prevented as inhibited by treating such area with an effective amount of male mouse sesquiterpenic pheromone or a derivative thereof, wherein such pheromone has male mouse aversion signalling properties, and the pheromone is not used in the form of male mouse urine.
