Methods For Characterizing, Classifying, And Identifying Unknowns In Samples

View page
US Patent:
6408250, Jun 18, 2002
Filed:
Aug 10, 1999
Appl. No.:
09/372641
Inventors:
Jay W. Grate - West Richland WA
Barry M. Wise - Manson WA
Assignee:
Battelle Memorial Institute - Richland WA
International Classification:
G01N 2900
US Classification:
702 30, 702 22
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for taking the data generated from an array of responses from a multichannel instrument, and determining the characteristics of a chemical in the sample without the necessity of calibrating or training the instrument with known samples containing the same chemical. The characteristics determined by the method are then used to classify and identify the chemical in the sample. The method can also be used to quantify the concentration of the chemical in the sample.

US Classification:
2101982, 210659, 96101
Abstract:
The invention encompasses systems for column-based separations, methods of packing and unpacking columns and methods of separating components of samples. In one aspect, the invention includes a system for column-based separations, comprising: a) a fluid passageway, the fluid passageway comprising a column chamber and a flow path in fluid communication with the column chamber, the flow path being obstructed by a retaining material permeable to a carrier fluid and impermeable to a column matrix material suspended in the carrier fluid, the flow path extending through the column chamber and through the retaining material, the flow path being configured to form a packed column within the column chamber when a suspension of the fluid and the column matrix material is flowed along the flow path; and b) the fluid passageway extending through a valve intermediate the column chamber and the retaining material.

US Patent:
6780326, Aug 24, 2004
Filed:
Nov 7, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/703815
Inventors:
Oleg B. Egorov - Richland WA
Matthew J. OHara - Richland WA
Jay W. Grate - West Richland WA
Darrell P. Chandler - Richland WA
Fred J. Brockman - Kennewick WA
Cynthia J. Bruckner-Lea - Richland WA
Assignee:
Battelle Memorial Institute - Richland WA
International Classification:
B01D 1508
US Classification:
210656, 210659, 2101982, 95 82
Abstract:
The invention encompasses systems for column-based separations, methods of packing and unpacking columns and methods of separating components of samples. In one aspect, the invention includes a method of packing and unpacking a column chamber, comprising: a) packing a matrix material within a column chamber to form a packed column; and b) after the packing, unpacking the matrix material from the column chamber without moving the column chamber. In another aspect, the invention includes a system for column-based separations, comprising: a) a fluid passageway, the fluid passageway comprising a column chamber and a flow path in fluid communication with the column chamber, the flow path being obstructed by a retaining material permeable to a carrier fluid and impermeable to a column matrix material suspended in the carrier fluid, the flow path extending through the column chamber and through the retaining material, the flow path being configured to form a packed column within the column chamber when a suspension of the fluid and the column matrix material is flowed along the flow path; and b) the fluid passageway extending through a valve intermediate the column chamber and the retaining material.

Photopatternable Sorbent And Functionalized Films

View page
US Patent:
6991887, Jan 31, 2006
Filed:
Nov 1, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/703755
Inventors:
Jay W. Grate - West Richland WA, US
David A. Nelson - Richland WA, US
Assignee:
Battelle Memorial Institute - Richland WA
International Classification:
G03F 7/038
G03F 7/027
G03F 7/20
G03F 7/30
C08J 3/28
US Classification:
4302701, 430325, 522 99, 522148, 522172, 427515
Abstract:
A composition containing a polymer, a crosslinker and a photo-activatable catalyst is placed on a substrate. The composition is exposed to a predetermined pattern of light, leaving an unexposed region. The light causes the polymer to become crosslinked by hydrosilylation. A solvent is used to remove the unexposed composition from the substrate, leaving the exposed pattern to become a sorbent polymer film that will absorb a predetermined chemical species when exposed to such chemical species.

Biocomposite Materials And Methods For Making The Same

View page
US Patent:
7311926, Dec 25, 2007
Filed:
Dec 20, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/326201
Inventors:
Jay W. Grate - West Richland WA, US
Jungbae Kim - Seoul, KR
Assignee:
Battelle Memorial Institute - Richland WA
International Classification:
A61K 9/50
US Classification:
424491, 424400, 424489, 424490
Abstract:
A particle (and a composition that includes a plurality of the particles) that includes at least one polypeptide molecule and at least one polymer covalently bound to the polypeptide molecule so as to form a polymer shell substantially encompassing the polypeptide molecule, wherein the particle does not define a dimension greater than about 1 μm. One example for making the particle includes modifying the polypeptide molecule to provide α, β-ethylenically unsaturated terminal functional groups, mixing the modified polypeptide molecule with a silicon-containing polymerizable compound, and subjecting the resulting mixture to conditions sufficient for polymerizing the polymerizable compound to form the particle.

Method And Apparatus For Concentrating Vapors For Analysis

View page
US Patent:
7430928, Oct 7, 2008
Filed:
Feb 8, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/350716
Inventors:
Jay W. Grate - West Richland WA, US
David L. Baldwin - Kennewick WA, US
Assignee:
Battelle Memorial Insititute - Richland WA
International Classification:
G01N 1/00
US Classification:
7386321
Abstract:
An apparatus and method are disclosed for pre-concentrating gaseous vapors for analysis. The invention finds application in conjunction with, e. g. , analytical instruments where low detection limits for gaseous vapors are desirable. Vapors sorbed and concentrated within the bed of the apparatus can be thermally desorbed achieving at least partial separation of vapor mixtures. The apparatus is suitable, e. g. , for preconcentration and sample injection, and provides greater resolution of peaks for vapors within vapor mixtures, yielding detection levels that are 10-10,000 times better than for direct sampling and analysis systems. Features are particularly useful for continuous unattended monitoring applications.
