Abstract: There is presented a screening system and a corresponding method for screening an item. The screening system includes a detection apparatus (100), a rotatable platform (310) to receive the item, and a mechanical arrangement (320, 330). The detection apparatus has an emitter portion to generate a primary beam of ionising radiation and a detector portion to detect an absorption signal and at least one of a diffraction signal and a scattering signal. The mechanical arrangement is adapted to translate the detection apparatus along a translation axis to scan the item with the primary beam. The screening system may be used for identifying restricted or illicit substances that may be present in some luggage or in mail.

Abstract: Provided herein are porous polymer monolith materials and processes that enable integration of blood fractionation, specific nucleic acid amplification and/or detection of nucleic acids from whole blood.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a concentrator for concentrating, purifying or otherwise isolating one or more target analytes in a fluid matrix, and related methods, using self-wicking materials, such as monoliths. The present disclosure can be used as a point-of need sample preparation device. The self-contained device can be used for the extraction and concentration of specific target molecules, such as nucleic acids.

Abstract: A folding camping trailer for use with an ATV. The trailer is of rugged construction and uses low inflation tires, and is large enough, when unfolded, to allow at least one sleeper. The interior is equipped with camping equipment such as stove, lantern, lights, toilet, equipment lockers, water, sink, heater and the like. Importantly, the trailer is dimensioned and configured to take up a foot print similar to that of an ATV, so that a standard garage or trailer dimensioned and configured to hold ATVs may hold the camping trailer in an ATV space. The trailer may have an extendible yoke, a torsional axle, and additional beds.
