20070142692 - Method of refinishing a wall containing lead paint: A method of refinishing a wall containing lead paint includes the steps of covering the wall with a series of barrier boards impermeable to lead dust, sealing joints between the barrier boards so as to prevent the passage of lead dust and installing finishing panels over the series of barrier... Agent: Owens Corning

20070142693 - Clarification method and apparatus for material contaminated with heavy metals: A clarification method and apparatus, which can reliably remove heavy metals, including their sparingly soluble fractions, from a contaminated solid material containing the heavy metals, such as soil, sludge, sediments, wastes, or incineration ash, are provided. A reaction vessel 2 is divided into an anode zone 10 containing an anode... Agent: Oblon, Spivak, Mcclelland, Maier & Neustadt, P.C.

20070135671 - Method for defeat of bulk chemical warfare agents: A method for immobilizing at least one hazardous chemical, comprising the steps of breaching a container having a bulk chemical agent, adding a Theological modifier into the container, and dispersing the Theological modifier within the container so as to promote interaction between the rheological modifier and the bulk chemical agent.... Agent: Husch & Eppenberger, LLC

20070135672 - Dna hybrids and environment cleaning system employing dna hybrids: A DNA hybrid which comprises a porous oxide matrix and DNA immobilized thereon, and is useful for environmental clean-up, where the hybrid is prepared by removing a dispersion medium from a dispersion of colloidal oxide and DNA.... Agent: Fitzpatrick Cella Harper & Scinto

20070129591 - Radiation-shielding container: A radiation-shielding container for storing a syringe includes a body assembly and a cap assembly securable to the body assembly such that first and second chamber portions define a chamber for storing the syringe. The body assembly includes a body shield formed of radiation shielding material, a body shell that... Agent: Michael Best & Friedrich, LLP
