Abstract:
Abstract Caballero identified the star 2MASS 19281982-2640123 as a potential Sun-like star from which the WOW! signal could have originated. We conducted a search for artificial narrowband (2.79 Hz/1.91 Hz), drifting (±4 Hz s−1) technosignatures from this source using the turboSETI pipeline, from 1–2 GHz, using simultaneous multi-telescope observations with both the Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope and the newly refurbished Allen Telescope Array on 2022 May 21. Both telescope observations had an overlap of 580 s. While blind searches using radio telescopes have been conducted in the general field of view in which the WOW! signal was first detected, this is the first time a targeted search has been done. No technosignature candidates were detected.

Abstract:
Abstract We present Breakthrough Listen’s Exotica Catalog as the centerpiece of our efforts to expand the diversity of targets surveyed in the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI). As motivation, we introduce the concept of survey breadth, the diversity of objects observed during a program. Several reasons for pursuing a broad program are given, including increasing the chance of a positive result in SETI, commensal astrophysics, and characterizing systematics. The Exotica Catalog is a 963 entry collection of 816 distinct targets intended to include “one of everything” in astronomy. It contains four samples: the Prototype sample, with an archetype of every known major type of nontransient celestial object; the Superlative sample of objects, with the most extreme properties; the Anomaly sample of enigmatic targets that are in some way unexplained; and the Control sample, with sources not expected to produce positive results. As far as we are aware, this is the first object list in recent times with the purpose of spanning the breadth of astrophysics. We share it with the community in hopes that it can guide treasury surveys and as a general reference work. Accompanying the catalog is an extensive discussion of the classification of objects and a new classification system for anomalies. Extensive notes on the objects in the catalog are available online. We discuss how we intend to proceed with observations in the catalog, contrast it with our extant Exotica efforts, and suggest how similar tactics may be applied to other programs.

Abstract:
This chapter illustrates the first phase of an innovation journey: how individuals can envision breakthrough directions. The process of innovation of meaning moves from the inside-out. It starts from us. Everyone, within an organization, harbours a sense of what could be meaningful to customers. Everyone nurtures hypotheses. They may be explicit, but most often implicit, in our mind, and in our heart. If we do not expose them, they will in any case sway our interpretations when we will listen to others. Better then to take them out. First, because by exposing our hypotheses we reduce the risk of being stuck in our own assumptions. Second, because our hypotheses are the precious raw ingredient to fuel the entire process. The ingredient that will be then critically melted and fused with others along the way. By “envisioning” we therefore to expose our individual hypotheses. We do this by addressing this question: “What would I love people to love”? The phase of Envisioning asks us to elicit what has been silently boiling inside for a while. It provides a formal and legitimate context to think about what we would love people to love. This chapter illustrates who should envision, and how.

Abstract:
Rosenstock posed andragogy as a necessity in which the past, present, and future merges with theory in becoming practical deeds. Knowles presents his first published iteration of andragogy as being a major technological breakthrough in the field of adult education. Hadley developed a 60-item questionnaire assessing an adult educator's andragogical and pedagogical orientation. Henschke developed an andragogical inventory that contained 45 items within seven factors, found congruence with self-directed learning, and was Cronbach-Alpha validated for reliability three times with an almost perfect ‘bell-shaped' measurement for an andragogical facilitator. Poggeler listed 10 trends he hopes will be helpful for future development of European andragogy and perhaps may apply to the USA. Rachal identified seven criteria for implementing empirical studies of andragogy. Biao found after 25 years of research that andragogical programs/courses need to be staffed by people academically prepared and competent in andragogy. This chapter explores all of this.

Abstract:
Image processing combined with computer vision is creating a vast breakthrough in many research, industry-related, and social applications. The growth of big data has led to the large quantity of high-resolution images that can be used in complex applications and processing. There is a need for rapid image processing methods to find accurate and faster results for the time-crucial applications. In such cases, there is a need to accelerate the algorithms and models using the HPC systems. The acceleration of these algorithms can be obtained using hardware accelerators like GPU, TPU, FPGA, etc. The GPU and TPU are mainly used for the parallel implementation of the algorithms and processing them parallelly. The acceleration method and hardware selection are challenging since numerous accelerators are available, requiring deep knowledge and understanding of the algorithms. This chapter explains the deployment of HPC accelerators for CNN and how acceleration is achieved. The leading cloud platforms used in computer vision for acceleration are also listed.

Full text
Abstract:
Supercapacitors evolved as a breakthrough to the existing shortages in energy resources because of its enhanced capacitive performance, long-term stability, and high power density. Transition metal oxides (TMOs), a redox active material in energy storage applications, showing high specific capacitance (100–2000 F/g) than the electrical double-layer capacitor (EDLC) material has been reviewed a lot. Among various TMOs, nickel oxide (NiO), tin oxide (SnO2), manganese dioxide (MnO2), tungsten oxide (WO3), vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) are widely used by researchers due to their high theoretical capacitance, low cost, and long cycle life. The limitations of TMO-based electrode material includes low electrical conductivity, ion mobility, and low energy density. It is thus important to develop proper combination of TMO with other transition metals, TMOs, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), conducting polymers (CPs) and carbon-based materials (graphene oxide (GO), activated carbon (AC) and reduced GO (rGO)). This chapter focuses on ongoing development in six TMO-based electrode material (NiO, ZnO, MnO2, SnO2, WO3, V2O5) fabrication for the enhancement of electrochemical performance, their synthesis method and then review about the recent progress in studying the supercapacitor performance of the material. The limitations of each TMOs listed separately, providing new insights for future energy storage applications.

Abstract:
Toward the end of the twentieth century we saw countless inventories of inventions and achievements—the top twenty scientific breakthroughs of the millenium, the fifty most important people of the century, and so on. I am of two minds when I look at such lists. On the one hand, they rightly celebrate and draw our attention to much good that has been done. On the other hand, as we noted in Chapter 4, a vast portion of real accomplishment goes on below our level of perception. That point recurs in Chapter 14. So much of the creativity that defines us as people is inevitably left off such lists. It would be a futile exercise to correctly identify any definitive list of the most influential machines of all time. Yet some inventions really are landmarks. I have selected from among the first year’s Engines of Our Ingenuity radio programs a set of starting points that strongly propagate forward in time. Some might be obvious choices; others might not. But each can rightly be called a landmark because it sits squarely on some major highway of subsequent development. There is, of course, only one place to begin such a list, and that is with the great progenitor of machines—the first machine most people will name. We begin with the wheel, which has become such a universal and familiar icon of our technological world that we forget the enormous conceptual leap it embodied. The wheel was almost surely invented somewhere within the borders of present-day Iran or Iraq, five and a half millennia ago. That in itself is surprising because it happened so late in human history. The wheel was also confined within Europe and Asia for a long time. Wheels were hardly seen in the American hemisphere until European settlers began bringing them into regular use in the sixteenth century. There is evidence that the eleventh-century inhabitants of what we now call Mexico had the concept, but we have no evidence of its general use. Of course, you and I have lived our entire lives with a hundred thousand different forms of the wheel.

Abstract:
The world changed on January 9, 2007. It was the Macworld trade show in San Francisco, an annual showcase for Apple products, and founder Steve Jobs was about to introduce a new gadget. “Every once in a while, a revolutionary product comes along that changes everything,” announced Jobs. The Macworld audience had a Pavlovian expectation for something game-changing that day. In 1984 Apple introduced the Macintosh, which went on to transform computing and make the mouse a mainstream accessory. Then in 2001, the iPod arrived. “It didn’t just change the way we all listened to music. It changed the entire music industry,” Jobs reminded his audience. (This was no exaggeration. When Apple began offering individual songs for ninety-nine cents on its iTunes store, the era of record companies selling entire albums was shattered.) “Today, we’re introducing three revolutionary products. The first one is a wide-screen iPod with touch controls.” Jobs paused for dramatic effect. On cue, the audience broke into hearty applause. “The second,” continued Jobs, “is a revolutionary mobile phone.” This time, before he could pause, cheers rang out—with a louder, prolonged burst of clapping. Apple had never manufactured a phone before. “And the third,” he went on, as a big screen behind him mirrored his words, “is a breakthrough internet communications device.” A whoop, followed by a polite round of clapping; by now the audience was a bit confused at the deluge of new products. Jobs let his words hang in the air, teasing the crowd as it waited in anticipation. “So, three things,” he recapped, as the screen behind him showed three Apple icons representing an iPod, a phone, and the internet. “A wide-screen iPod with touch controls, a revolutionary mobile phone, and a breakthrough internet communications device.” Silence. “An iPod, a phone, and an internet communicator,” Jobs repeated, as the screen displayed each of those icons in the center, flipping to reveal the next one. The animations behind Jobs had been carefully choreographed to match his words.

Abstract:
This chapter accentuates the latest breakthrough in the advanced and intelligent materials' catalysis, sensing and wastewater treatment applications. The various engineered materials are securing the interest of researchers for optimized technical utilizations. This chapter discusses the number of catalytic and sensing operations of advanced and intelligent materials in detail. Catalysis and sensing phenomena involve the conversion of obtained signals into a readable format, and advanced materials with their superior optical, semiconducting or physical properties are studied widely. However, wastewater treatment needs adsorption and advanced oxidation of the different types of contaminants by the advanced materials. The list of advanced materials includes many organic/inorganic and natural/synthetic platforms with desired properties. These advanced materials have high biocompatibility and easy biodegradable characteristics. With the latest synthesis and functionalization methods, these advanced materials are becoming nanohybrid systems. This chapter covers implementing these nanohybrid systems for catalysis, wastewater treatment and sensing. The first half of the chapter focuses on introducing the basic catalytic, sensing and wastewater processes based on the application of advanced materials. However, the second half includes introducing various advanced materials in the techniques mentioned above.

Abstract The paper describes the basic features of the East-Messoyahskoe oil field that are important for efficient reservoir development, the key of which are high oil viscosity (111 cP), high heterogenieity and permeability contrast, and the presence of aquifer with a different strength. The review of the experience in proactive breakthrough risks identification is presented. The actual breakthroughs during waterflooding of the PK-13 reservoir of the East-Messoyahskoe oil field are described and analyzed. The backgrounds and regularities increasing the risks of breakthroughs are identified. The analytical calculations have been made and key influencing factors have been defined. Based on the obtained results, the methodology of the proactive breakthrough identification was developed. The methodology has been tested in the real conditions of the East-Messoyahskoe oil field. The first results have been received, which confirm the operational efficiency of the developed methodological approach. All wells were rated according to their breakthrough risk, and measures for operative and proactive breakthroughs risk management has been proposed. All listed are combined into a system which permits minimization of breakthrough risks and manages them for the increase of unconsolidated heavy oil reservoirs development efficiency.

Abstract:
Abstract Large volume of CO2 injection into the saline aquifer is considered to be the high potential CO2 storage method. Until now, the field of CO2 injectivity has been completely dominated by salt precipitation – and by far the most studied mechanism for the loss of injectivity. In this paper, our aim is to focus on recent findings on CO2 injectivity impairment by fines migration that should not be overlooked. This paper summarizes the state-of-the-art knowledge obtained from theoretical, field studies, and experimental observations on CO2 injectivity impairment by fines migration in saline aquifers in the sense of CO2 storage. By gathering various data from books, DOE papers, field reports and SPE publications, a detailed and high quality data set for fines migration during CO2 injection into saline aquifer is created. Key reservoir/fluid/rock information, operational parameters and petrophysical evaluations are assessments are provided, providing the basis for comprehensive data analysis. The results are presented in terms of boxplot and histogram, where histogram displays the distribution of each parameter and identifies the best suitable ranges for best practices; boxplots are used to detect the special cases and summarize the ranges of each parameter. Previous coreflooding experiments concluded that salt precipitation, mineral precipitation, dissolution and mobilization are the main mechanisms that caused CO2 injectivity impairments. Dissolution of carbonate minerals is dominant and it increases the poro spaces and connectivity of sandstone core samples. Conversely, detachment, precipitation of salt and clay minerals and deposition of fines particles decreases the flow are and even clog the flow paths despite net dissolution. However, the results are case dependent and lack generality in terms of quantifying the petrophysical damage. It has been highlighted that injection scheme (flow rate, time frame), mineral composition (clay content, sensitive minerals), particulate process in porous media (pore geometry, particle and carrier fluid properties), and thermodynamic conditions (pressure, temperature, salinity, CO2 and brine composition) give substantial effect on the fines migration during CO2 injection. Additionally, the current experimental work is limited to rendering time and difficult to identify the dynamic process of fines migration during CO2 injection. A list of potential additional work has therefore been presented in this paper including the establishment of microscopic visualization of CO2-brine-rock interactions with representative pore-network under reservoir pressure and temperature. This is the first paper to summarize the contribution of fines migration on CO2 injectivity impairment in saline aquifer.

Abstract:
Abstract There is no well operation that is truly non-damaging. Any invasive operation, even production phase itself, may be damaging to well productivity. An interesting case was found in L-Field which is located in South Sumatra, Indonesia. All four wells are predicted to cease to flow after five-year production and artificial lift have to be installed to prevent steep decline in oil production. Unfortunately, all of wells’ productivity index (PI) decreased post well intervention and therefore, couldn’t achieve target. The PI was continuously decreasing during production phase and aggravated the decline in oil production. Remediation action by systematic approach was applied to solve the problem. Early diagnostic revealed some potential causes through evaluation of both production and well treatment data. Laboratory test such as mineralogy analysis, crude composition and water analysis, solubility and compatibility test have been conducted and clarified the root cause that formation damage occurred in multiple mechanism related to incompatibility of the workover fluid and organic deposition. Then, possible well treatments were listed with pros and cons by considering post water production related to the carbonate reservoir properties. Subsequently, chemical matrix injection was ranked based on less possibility of water breakthrough risk. Diesel fuel and de-emulsifier injection was decided as the first treatment in order to remove formation damage caused by organic deposition. The rate was increased temporary with Water Cut (WC) remained at the same level. The subseqeuent effort was to inject low reaction chelating acid and the result showed temporary improvement and the production did achieve significant gain. Finally, the third attempt indicated promising results with the injection of aromatic solvent followed by chelating acid. The well productivity was increased to more than 20 times of the pre treatment levels. The method can be replicated to other affected wells with similar damage mechanism. High vertical permeability over horizontal permeability becomes a real threat in carbonate strong water driver reservoir in L-field. Thus, matrix acidizing treatment has to be carefully applied to prevent unwanted water production. Non-aggressive and slow reaction acid were chosen to prevent face dissolution reaction that leads to water breakthrough.

Abstract:
Abstract This article describes engineering and technology solutions developed to successfully construct unconventional and unique horizontal well at the field of Eastern Siberia targeted to two isolated formations with an option to shut-off top Botuobinsky horizon after gas breakthrough and produce oil from underlying Ulakhansky bed further on. As oil-water contact in the lower part of Ulakhansky horizon makes fracturing the well inexpedient, multi hole drilling technology was implemented enabling drainage of the reserves that are far from the main borehole. The main objective of this well is to deplete Botuobinsky horizon subsequently shutting it off and continuing to recover petroleum reserves from Ulakhansky pay zone. Constructing such well is cost-effective, as it requires drilling only one intermediate casing interval instead of two. Accumulated experience of drilling and completing multi hole wells was used to ensure successful well construction; also, geological and stratigraphic data as well as possible complications while drilling Botuobunsky and Ulakhansky formations were analyzed in-depth. The following appliances were selected to meet the objective: –Bottom-hole equipment enabling drilling abrasive formations under conditions of high vibrations;–Special line of drill bits to ensure high ROP and successful sidetracking without additional tripping;–RSS with 152.4 mm drill bit. The goal set by the operating company was achieved through multi-faceted approach to performing the task, efficient cooperation of engineering technical services and continuous monitoring of output data while drilling. All that combined delivered the results listed below: –Sidetracks were carried out in an open horizontal hole without cement plugs and additional tripping for drill bit or BHA.–Minimized bottom-hole equipment failures under condition of increased high-frequency vibrations from bit while drilling hard formations due to implementation of modular PDM with data-transmitting channel.–Minimized bottom-hole equipment failures under condition of increased low-frequency vibrations from drill string with Hard Bending due to improved BHA design and optimized drilling parameters selection.–Liner was effectively run to Botuobinsky and Ulakhansky reservoirs with an option to shut-off the former after depletion and gas breakthrough. This well is the first one targeted at two isolated formations in East Siberia.

Abstract:
New concept of fast reactor (FR), i.e. the STFR (Spray Type FR), is proposed here to perform high burn-up of UO2 fuel or MOX fuel by the use of BWR technology, and to improve the backend process of discharged fuel. STFR can be realized by some important changes of BWR system, at 7.50MPa. In case of STFR, heat produced in the core is removed by the evaporation of sprayed hot water jetted to fuel with cross flow at 7.50MPa, and two phases (liquid and vapor) of coolant at high void ratio goes down to the bottom of PV (pressure vessel). This is an improved concept of BWR, which can be regarded as a breakthrough of FBR. This concept has not been listed in GEN IV. Future performance of STFR are as follows, (1) STFR can increase the fraction of direct fission of 238U with neutron reaction of higher energy than 1MeV, (2) STFR can burn the nuclear fuel to the higher burn-up (80 to 200GWd/Mg-HM) compared with BWR fuel burn-up. (3) Higher burn-up of fuel will reduce the frequency of reprocessing, so STFR can reduce the reprocessing cost per power production. (4) STFR can reduce the remains of Pu and MA (Minor Actinides: Np, Am, Cm etc.) in discharged fuel.

Abstract:
Since the invention of the media in the 20th century, technological advances in the field of information have revolutionised the art and science of design. Thanks to new screen devices, communication platforms, printing technologies, and software, artists and designers have unprecedented creative freedom to combine a variety of tools and techniques to generate images and ideas based on their own ideas. The emerging immersive virtual reality technology in recent years is both complex and interesting. Because its development time is very short, there is still great room for exploration. Artists have traditionally been early adopters of new technologies focused on promoting innovative ideas, but now that role is more forward-looking than ever. Visual research is often cited as an aesthetic criterion by some artists and designers, but in fact, it should be explored how to use its theory to explore the communication of digital information communication technology or to develop more ideographic tools. It is not simply a feature or term used to identify the development of visual creativity over the past two decades; it is a discipline in itself worth exploring. This study aims to investigate what does visual experience means in general? Whether it is a medium independent of all fields of design and art or just another innovation in a long-term technological breakthrough, remains unclear. How does it affect our perception, understanding, and creation of visual communication? This article explores the issues listed above but also discusses the obstacles designers and artists face in the age of digital art and design.

Abstract:
Abstract In a giant offshore UAE carbonate oil field, challenges related to advanced maturity, presence of a huge gas-cap and reservoir heterogeneities have impacted production performance. More than 30% of oil producers are closed due to gas front advance and this percentage is increasing with time. The viability of future developments is highly impacted by lower completion design and ways to limit gas breakthrough. Autonomous inflow-control devices (AICD's) are seen as a viable lower completion method to mitigate gas production while allowing oil production, but their effect on pressure drawdown must be carefully accounted for, in a context of particularly high export pressure. A first AICD completion was tested in 2020, after a careful selection amongst high-GOR wells and a diagnosis of underlying gas production mechanisms. The selected pilot is an open-hole horizontal drain closed due to high GOR. Its production profile was investigated through a baseline production log. Several AICD designs were simulated using a nodal analysis model to account for the export pressure. Reservoir simulation was used to evaluate the long-term performance of short-listed scenarios. The integrated process involved all disciplines, from geology, reservoir engineering, petrophysics, to petroleum and completion engineering. In the finally selected design, only the high-permeability heel part of the horizontal drain was covered by AICDs, whereas the rest was completed with pre-perforated liner intervals, separated with swell packers. It was considered that a balance between gas isolation and pressure draw-down reduction had to be found to ensure production viability for such pilot evaluation. Subsequent to the re-completion, the well could be produced at low GOR, and a second production log confirmed the effectiveness of AICDs in isolating free gas production, while enhancing healthy oil production from the deeper part of the drain. Continuous production monitoring, and other flow profile surveys, will complete the evaluation of AICD effectiveness and its adaptability to evolving pressure and fluid distribution within the reservoir. Several lessons will be learnt from this first AICD pilot, particularly related to the criticality of fully integrated subsurface understanding, evaluation, and completion design studies. The use of AICD technology appears promising for retrofit solutions in high-GOR inactive strings, prolonging well life and increasing reserves. Regarding newly drilled wells, dedicated efforts are underway to associate this technology with enhanced reservoir evaluation methods, allowing to directly design the lower completion based on diagnosed reservoir heterogeneities. Reduced export pressure and artificial lift will feature in future field development phases, and offer the flexibility to extend the use of AICD's. The current technology evaluation phases are however crucial in the definition of such technology deployments and the confirmation of their long-term viability.

Abstract:
During stepping into an era of rapidly changing world and constantly disruption, companies need to generate new value to unlock opportunities and drive the growth (Lee et al., 2009). Innovation is a key initiative for competitive advantage as the main driver of economic growth (Lopez, 2012). Nevertheless, as the environment changes, regulations evolve, new technologies emerge, and even consumer behavior changes, businesses may not have a clear picture of how they will survive or succeed. Companies should increase individuals' futures literacy capacities in order to strengthen firms' sensing dynamic capabilities (Rhisiart et al., 2015). UNESCO has addressed the urgent need to enhance people's capacities and skills by empowering everyone to better use the future to prepare for potential crises or overcome major challenges (UNESCO, 2021). However, there is no established approach for developing these competencies in service innovation. Therefore, we aim to enhance individuals ability by cultivating future literacy, which is a basis of human skill for future service design (Bell, 2009; Miller, 2018).Kononiuk et al. (2021) stated a future study by providing tools to facilitate futures thinking, including trend and scenario analysis. Rohrbeck (2011) listed future-oriented capabilities as the ability to gather external data, and apply creativity to find opportunities and take risks. Therefore, we believe that the global and business scanning, such as megatrend, technology trends or research direction through intellectual property, will be an essential part of enhancing future literacy. Technology trends alone usually cannot cover all organizational scenarios (Lee, 2013). Predicting the future requires not just recognizing and assessing opportunities, but also taking into account potential risks (Morris et al., 2013; Dannenberg and Grapentin, 2016; Haarhaus & Liening, 2020). In addition to considering the potential and impacts of technology breakthroughs, the climate change also influences business and financial decisions (TCFD, 2021). Unexpected business losses may caused by climate-related economic costs, such as rising global temperatures or natural disasters. Firms will be better able to take responsibility and foresight if they are aware of the challenges (TCFD, 2020). Based on the background, we developed knowledge-based service innovation workshop. We have presented megatrend, technology trends and relevant patent information to demonstrate the likelihood of technological advancement. As a reference for comprehending possible scenarios, we also present probable climate-related economic costs. Then, leveraging the future vision as a starting point to generate innovative ideas.This paper discusses the success of promoting future literacy for corporate innovation with the knowledge-based service innovation workshop. We conducted an idea generating workshop for employees at various levels to help them in developing innovative ideas for both internal and external environments. We developed our brainstorming workshop in conjunction with providing of megatrend, technology trends, business-related intellectual property, and trustworthy climate-related financial information. It also considers employee feedback on how to motivate creativity through the provision of future opportunities. The outcomes of this study will contribute to the enhance human resource competencies in order to cope with the future, which will lead to sustainable service innovation development.

Rapid detection of food borne pathogens and non-pathogens in fresh produce using FT-IRS and raman spectroscopy.

Abstract:
Rapid detection of pathogens and hazardous elements in fresh fruits and vegetables after harvest requires the use of advanced sensor technology at each step in the farm-to-consumer or farm-to-processing sequence. Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and the complementary Raman spectroscopy, an advanced optical technique based on light scattering will be investigated for rapid and on-site assessment of produce safety. Paving the way toward the development of this innovative methodology, specific original objectives were to (1) identify and distinguish different serotypes of Escherichia coli, Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella typhimurium, and Bacillus cereus by FTIR and Raman spectroscopy, (2) develop spectroscopic fingerprint patterns and detection methodology for fungi such as Aspergillus, Rhizopus, Fusarium, and Penicillium (3) to validate a universal spectroscopic procedure to detect foodborne pathogens and non-pathogens in food systems. The original objectives proposed were very ambitious hence modifications were necessary to fit with the funding. Elaborate experiments were conducted for sensitivity, additionally, testing a wide range of pathogens (more than selected list proposed) was also necessary to demonstrate the robustness of the instruments, most crucially, algorithms for differentiating a specific organism of interest in mixed cultures was conceptualized and validated, and finally neural network and chemometric models were tested on a variety of applications. Food systems tested were apple juice and buffer systems. Pathogens tested include Enterococcus faecium, Salmonella enteritidis, Salmonella typhimurium, Bacillus cereus, Yersinia enterocolitis, Shigella boydii, Staphylococus aureus, Serratiamarcescens, Pseudomonas vulgaris, Vibrio cholerae, Hafniaalvei, Enterobacter cloacae, Enterobacter aerogenes, E. coli (O103, O55, O121, O30 and O26), Aspergillus niger (NRRL 326) and Fusarium verticilliodes (NRRL 13586), Saccharomyces cerevisiae (ATCC 24859), Lactobacillus casei (ATCC 11443), Erwinia carotovora pv. carotovora and Clavibacter michiganense. Sensitivity of the FTIR detection was 103CFU/ml and a clear differentiation was obtained between the different organisms both at the species as well as at the strain level for the tested pathogens. A very crucial step in the direction of analyzing mixed cultures was taken. The vector based algorithm was able to identify a target pathogen of interest in a mixture of up to three organisms. Efforts will be made to extend this to 10-12 key pathogens. The experience gained was very helpful in laying the foundations for extracting the true fingerprint of a specific pathogen irrespective of the background substrate. This is very crucial especially when experimenting with solid samples as well as complex food matrices. Spectroscopic techniques, especially FTIR and Raman methods are being pursued by agencies such as DARPA and Department of Defense to combat homeland security. Through the BARD US-3296-02 feasibility grant, the foundations for detection, sample handling, and the needed algorithms and models were developed. Successive efforts will be made in transferring the methodology to fruit surfaces and to other complex food matrices which can be accomplished with creative sampling methods and experimentation. Even a marginal success in this direction will result in a very significant breakthrough because FTIR and Raman methods, in spite of their limitations are still one of most rapid and nondestructive methods available. Continued interest and efforts in improving the components as well as the refinement of the procedures is bound to result in a significant breakthrough in sensor technology for food safety and biosecurity.
