Publication number: 20110053228Abstract: A system and method are provided which utilize microbes to convert biomass feedstock into a fuel. In one aspect, a method of producing aromatic compounds and lipids includes: receiving a feedstock including biological matter; separating the feedstock into a liquid phase feedstock and a solid phase feedstock; adding water and nutrients to the solid phase feedstock, thereby producing a liquid culture; inoculating the liquid culture with microbes capable of converting the solid phase feedstock into aromatic compounds and lipids, the inoculated liquid culture yielding microbial biomass; providing suitable conditions for the microbes to convert the solid phase feedstock to aromatic compounds and lipids; and extracting produced aromatic compounds and lipids.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 11, 2010Publication date: March 3, 2011Applicant: MENON & ASSOCIATES, INC.Inventors: Suresh M. Menon, Kashinatham Alisala, Dewei Chen, Sara Guidi, Kozue Mitsuda, David E. Newman, Samantha Orchard, Richard Ostrom, Jagadish Chandra Sircar, Kay A. Yang

Publication number: 20110012596Abstract: A system and method are provided to detect target analytes based on magnetic resonance measurements. Magnetic structures produce distinct magnetic field regions having a size comparable to the analyte. When the analyte is bound in those regions, magnetic resonance signals from the sample are changed, leading to detection of the analyte.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 15, 2010Publication date: January 20, 2011Applicant: MENON & ASSOCIATES, INC.Inventors: Suresh M. Menon, David E. Newman, Terry J. Henderson, J. Manuel Perez
