Femtosecond Laser Photoionization Time-Of-Flight Mass Spectrometry of Nitro-Aromatic Explosives and Explosives Related Compounds
The ultrafast laser-induced photoionization and photodissociation processes of the nitroaromatic containing explosive and explosive related compounds have been investigated at three laser wavelengths and power densities using a time-of-flight mass spectrometer.

Selective Loss of Gabab Receptors in Orexin-Producing Neurons Results in Disrupted Sleep/Wakefulness Architecture
Here we analyze the in vivo and in vitro phenotype of mice lacking the GABAB1 gene specifically in orexin neurons (oxGKO mice) and demonstrate that GABAB receptors on orexin neurons are essential in stabilizing and consolidating sleep/wake states.

Micro-fluidic-based flow cytometer for point-of-care applications based on a spatial modulation technique
In this presentation we will describe and illustrate a fundamentally new design of the optical detection system that delivers high effective sensitivity (i.e., high signal to noise discrimination) without complex optics or bulky, expensive light sources to enable a flow cytometer that combines high performance, robustness, compactness, low cost, and ease of use.

Expression of Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors and Subunit Messenger RNAs in the Enteric Nervous System of the Neonatal Rat
The expression of heteromeric nAChR and receptor subunit mRNAs was investigated in the neonatal rat ENS using receptor autoradiography with the radiolabeled ligand 125I-epibatidine, and in situ hybridization with subtype specific probes for ligand binding alpha (α2, α3, α4, α5, α6) and structural beta (β2, β3, β4) subunits.

Simulation of a Process to Capture CO2 from IGCC Syngas Using a High Temperature PBI Membrane
In this paper, we are presenting the preliminary results of a process simulation using the ASPEN program under several scenerios including the IGCC with no CO2 capture, IGCC with Selexol, and IGCC with PBI membrane separator.
