The Invention:

New approach to synthesis. Pyrylium chemistry is a widely available, simpler structure, synthesized more easily compared with other materials. Pyrylium salts represent a class of small organic molecules built on a six-membered cationic heterocyclic structure with one positively charged oxygen ion and a variety of counterions. The piezochromic properties of pyrylium salts have never been previously reported.

Compounds that can stimulate or inhibit the germination of Paenibacillus larvae.

Inventor Ernesto Abel-Santos:

Expertise includes: Bioorganic Chemistry, Enzymology, Bacterial Spore Germination, Bioterrorism

The Invention

American Foulbrood (AFB), one of the most devastating diseases in honeybees, is caused by vegetative cells of P. larvae. This bacterial disease is a contributing factor to Colony Collapse Disorder as infected broods die at larval stage once they ingest food contaminated with P. larvae spores.

Cisplatin analogs for treating cancers

&nbsp;

The Invention

Platinum-based drugs, such as Cisplatin, are commonly prescribed drugs for cancer treatment. However, these drugs are limited by a narrow spectrum of activity, treatment resistance, and can include toxic side effects.

Invention Summary

Camouflaged communication is a way to maintain bandwidth while disguising a communication signal with a wide range of pulsed parameters in a sea or background of natural electronic noise. Knowing enough about the signal, a masked signal with low signal-to-noise ratio may be extracted by a targeted receiver from a noise spectrum. Camouflaged communication may inhibit jamming and spoofing techniques while relaxing the need for a dedicated wide bandwidth with complex command, control, and communication systems.
