Second-order model to predict microbial degradation of organic compounds in natural waters.

The reliability of second-order rate constants for assessing microbial degradation kinetics in natural waters was examined by using three compounds that undergo hydrolytic degradation. The butoxyethyl ester of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid was studied in water samples from 31 sites, malathion was examined in water from 14 sites, and chlorpropham was studied in samples from 11 sites. The coefficient of variation for rate constants for each compound was less than 65% over all sites. Additional studies indicated that the rate conformed to second-order kinetics; that is, the rate was proportional to both bacterial and xenobiotic concentrations.

Application of near-IR time-resolved spectroscopy and frequency response analysis for deep vein thrombosis detection.

Frequency response analysis is applied to analyze NIR-TRS spectra in a tissue model with a simulated thrombus. The value changes in parameters obtained from frequency response analysis are correlated with heterogeneity position in three dimensions. The goal of this research is to noninvasively localize deep vein thrombosis in the human leg through the use of this novel combination.
