A Faster Test For The Food Protein That Triggers Celiac Disease - Analytical Chemistry Journal



Researchers in Spain and the United Kingdom are reporting development of a faster test for identifying the food protein that triggers celiac disease, a difficult-to-diagnose digestive disease involving the inability to digest protein called gluten that occurs in wheat, oats, rye, and barley. The finding could help millions of people avoid diarrhea, bloating, and other symptoms that occur when they unknowingly eat foods containing gluten.

• Improved Measurements Could Mean Safer, More Reliable Electroshock Weapons
Electroshock weapons, such as stun guns and other similar devices that temporarily incapacitate a person by delivering a high-voltage, low-current electric shock, have helped law enforcement officers safely subdue dangerous or violent persons for years. Researchers at NIST are working toward a standard method for accurately assessing the electrical output of these devices, the results of which can be used in establishing baselines for future medical and safety studies.

• Are How-To articles patent infringement?
Last winter I wrote an article about how to build your own rink rake (a handheld PVC tool to disperse water on your backyard ice rink - a poor man's Zamboni :) using $15 of parts from Lowes. Yesterday I received an email telling me that RinkRake is trademarked and I am violating both his TM and patent. I agreed to remove the phrase "rink rake" from my article, but I don't see how posting plans to build something yourself would infringe the patent. Any thoughts on this?

In 752, Japanese Empress Koken wrote a short poem about the summertime yellowing of a field in what is thought to be the first account of a viral plant disease. More than 1,250 years later, scientists concluded that the virus Koken described was part of the particularly insidious geminivirus family that continues to decimate tomato, tobacco and cotton crops worldwide.
