Contaminant Accumulation and Removal in Building Plumbing Systems

September 30, 2008
Author(s)
Stephen J. Treado, Mark A. Kedzierski, Daniel R. Flynn, David Wilmering, Thomas D. Montgomery, Kenneth D. Cole
This report summarizes measurements and results conducted to evaluate the accumulation and removal of water-borne contaminants in building plumbing systems. In particular, tests were conducted at the BFRL Plumbing Test Facility, which emulates a full-scale

Trophic Transfer of Nanoparticles in a Simplified Food Web

May 30, 2008
Author(s)
Richard D. Holbrook, Karen E. Murphy, Jayne B. Morrow, Kenneth D. Cole
Nanotechnological innovations depend largely on the unique chemical and physical properties of engineered nanomaterials. However, the same properties that make engineered nanomaterials attractive for numerous applications also contribute to their

Epitope Selection of Monoclonal Antibodies for Interleukin-4 Quantification Using Suspension Arrays and Forward-Phase Protein Microarrays

December 6, 2007
Author(s)
Lili Wang, Kenneth D. Cole, Hua-Jun He, Alexander W. Peterson, Adolfas K. Gaigalas, Y Zong
A recombinant mouse interleukin-4 (IL-4) and three different purified rat anti-mouse IL-4 monoclonal antibodies (Mab) with different epitopes were employed as a model system. This system was used to examine monoclonal antibody effectiveness using both

Contamination and Decontamination of Building Plumbing Systems

September 25, 2006
Author(s)
Stephen J. Treado, Mark A. Kedzierski, Stephanie S. Watson, Kenneth D. Cole
The quality of drinking water has always been a subject of interest. In fact, a stable and secure supply of clean drinking water is a hallmark of modern society. Recently, new concerns have arisen regarding the potential occurrence of intentional or

Methods to Characterize Ricin for the Development of Reference Materials

July 1, 2006
Author(s)
Sung Kim, Diane K. Hancock, Lili Wang, Kenneth D. Cole, Prasad T. Reddy
Ricin is an abundant protein from the castor bean plant Ricinus communis. Because of its high toxicity and the simplicity of producing mass quantities, ricin is considered a biological terrorism agent. We have characterized ricin extensively with a view to

Electrophoretic Capture of Circular DNA in Gels - A Review

August 1, 2002
Author(s)
B. Akerman, Kenneth D. Cole
Results on electrophoretic capture of circular DNA in porous gels are reviewed. Processes, which cause arrest of circular forms of DNA during electrophoresis, can provide a very efficient separation mechanism for the purification of plasmids and bacterial

Separation of Large Circular DNA by Electrophoresis in Agarose Gels

January 1, 2002
Author(s)
Kenneth D. Cole, C M. Tellez
The electrophoresis of circular DNA, ranging in size from 4.4 kilobase pairs (kbp) to 220 kbp, was studied in agarose gels. Bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) DNA was used as a source of large supercoiled and open circular (relaxed) forms. the open
