Abstract: A collapsible cargo container is disclosed wherein end walls are pivoted into the container when empty and locked against the roof, and then side walls buckle via hinges into a folded configuration. The folded configuration is achieved easily with a modified spreader without the need to otherwise disassemble or deconstruct the container, leaving no loose parts or tools. The cargo container preferably constructed with an improved light weight panel that facilitates loading of the container while improving strength and reducing weight.

Abstract: An improved braking system is disclosed in which a pair of conical braking members engage a pair of skate wheels through vertical movement of a pushrod that is actuated by movement of the skater's foot within a cuff. The braking members are separated by a spring disposed on an axel to maintain the braking members in optimal braking position. The braking members are serrated to promote frictional contact with the wheels, and a disk is positioned on the axel to act as a clutch to control the braking force.

Abstract: In one aspect, the present invention provides a method and reagents for predicting a subject's susceptibility or risk to developing a neurobehavioral deficit associated with mercury exposure. The method comprises performing an assay to determine the presence or absence of a CPOX4 polymorphism in one or both alleles of the coproporphyrinogen oxidase (CPOX) gene, and classifying the susceptibility of the subject to developing a neurobehavioral deficit associated with mercury exposure. A subject determined to possess the CPOX4 polymorphism in at least one allele of the CPOX gene is classified as having an increased susceptibility to developing at least one neurobehavioral deficit associated with mercury exposure compared to a subject with no CPOX4 polymorphisms.

Abstract: In one aspect, the present invention provides a method of screening a human subject for the presence of or risk of developing, an autistic spectrum disorder (ASD) comprising determining the amount of at least one porphyrin from a set of porphyrin biomarkers for ASD in a biological sample obtained from the subject.
