A fencing bracket having a box structure having opposing left and right sidewalls extending from opposing longitudinal ends forming a U-shaped cross-section, and a return support flange disposed at a lower edge thereof, wherein the left and the right sidewall have a pair of aligned cross beam openings and a first and second opening respectively. The fencing bracket includes a strap having a first fiat portion having a third opening, a middle portion (that is either rounded or rectangular), and a second flat portion having a fourth opening, the middle portion is between the first flat portion and the second flat portion. The first opening is aligned with the third opening and the second opening is aligned with the fourth opening, and a fastener passes through the first, second, third and fourth openings and is retained via another fastener at either the third or fourth opening.

A method for efficiently decontaminating surfaces is provided comprising applying an indicator to a surface wherein the indicator provides an observable or machine readable response when a contamination is present on the surface, wherein the response is located relative to a location of the contamination; and decontaminating the location of the contamination, and optionally rechecking the location of the initial contamination post decontamination to ensure that the surface is free of contamination.

Decontamination of personnel and objects

Efficient decontamination of personnel and objects

An aqueous enzyme based sensor comprising one or more enzymes and at least one indicator compound capable of indicating a reaction of at least one of the enzymes with at least one target analyte, wherein the enzyme and the indicator are capable of being delivered, preferably by being sprayed, to a surface having the target analyte without sampling the surface. An aqueous enzyme based sensor is provided that is capable of detecting an enzyme specific substrate as the analyte. This aqueous enzyme based sensor further comprises of one or more enzyme specific substrates in which the sensor detects enzyme inhibition. The aqueous enzyme based sensor optionally comprises one or more of a light scattering additive(s), an adhesive polymer(s), a protein stabilizer(s), a protein stabilizing sugar(s), a surfactant(s), and a solvent(s), and combinations thereof. A dispensing system and a method of detecting a target chemical on a surface without sampling the surface is provided.

Enzyme containing liquid and delivery system for detection of analytes on surfaces

A method and device are disclosed for continuously detecting, classifying and identifying toxic particles, aerosols and/or vapor in an air sample, in near real time by directing an air sample containing an optional target analyte, in the form of particles, aerosols and/or vapors, enzyme(s), and enzyme substrate(s), to a surface of a collection matrix for forming a biocatalytic reaction product of a plurality of freely mobile optical reporters, and by using a light source with optical reader to interpret the signal from the optical reporter, enabling the detection, classification and identification of toxic particles, aerosols and/or vapor in the air sample.

Method for analyzing air

A sensor for the intermittent or continuous detection of the presence of at least one analyte in an environmental sample includes at least one enzyme that is selected to either (i) catalyze a reaction of the analyte to chemically convert the analyte to a product compound or (ii) be inhibited by the analyte in the presence of a substrate compound. The sensor also includes at least one sensor for monitoring or at least one indicator compound selected to produce a measurable change of state as a result of the interaction of the analyte and the enzyme. Optionally, each of the enzyme and the indicator compound are incorporated within a single polymer.

Enzyme-based device for environmental monitoring

A sensor for the detection of an analyte includes a first reagent in one section of the housing and at least a second reagent in another section of the housing. The sensor also includes a reservoir of a carrier fluid (that is, a liquid or a gas) within the housing. A release mechanism of the sensor is in operable connection with the reservoir so that when the release mechanism is activated, the carrier fluid is released from the reservoir. The carrier fluid mobilizes the second reagent to contact the first reagent with the second reagent. The interaction of the first reagent and the second reagent is affected by the presence or absence of the analyte to cause a measurable change of state within the sensor.

Sensors for the detection of an analyte

A sensor for detecting an analyte in an environment includes a first reaction system including a first enzyme and a substrate for the first enzyme. The analyte inhibits the reaction of the substrate catalyzed by the first enzyme (in other words, the analyte inhibits the first enzyme). The sensor further includes at least a second reaction system that reacts to produce a first detectable state when the first enzyme is inhibited. In some embodiments, the reaction of the first reaction system can produce a second detectible state, different from the first detectible state. Another sensor for detecting an analyte in an environment includes a first reaction system including a first enzyme or a first substrate for the first enzyme. In this embodiment, the analyte is either a substrate for the first enzyme if the first reaction system includes the first enzyme or the first enzyme if the first reaction system includes the first substrate. The sensor also includes at least a second reaction system that reacts to produce a first detectable state when the analyte is below a certain concentration. The sensor thus provides a positive or detectible response when the analyte is absent or deficient. Once again, the first reaction can produce a second detectible state, different from the first detectible state.
