Los tratamientos superficiales de los metales son aquellos tratamientos que protegen la superficie de los componentes del metal para protegerles de la oxidación y de la corrosión. Debido a la facilidad que tienen algunos metales (por ejemplo el hierro y el acero) para oxidarse cuando entra en contacto con la atmósfera o con el agua, es necesario y conveniente protegerlo mediante tales tratamientos.

Tasa de supervivencia de hasta un 100% para el tratamiento en fase tardía de las infecciones por ántrax
25-06-2010 - IQ Therapeutics B.V.anunció que en coalición con la University of Texas Medical Branch ha conseguido unos resultados excepcionales para el tratamiento por inhalación de ántrax. En un modelo de conejo se ha conseguido una supervivencia del 100% con un tiempo ampliado de tratamiento (48 horas después de la infección) con una combinación de dos anticuerpos monoclonales específicos desarrollados por IQ Therapeutics. Esto tiene un potencial enorme para salvar las vidas de las personas infectadas que no disponen de acceso inmediato al tratamiento.
El responsable científico de IQ Therapeutics, Herman Groen, declaró: "Los resultados conseguidos en los recientes estudios no tienen precedentes. Hemos demostrado en un modelo de conejo que se puede conseguir una supervivencia del 100% tras el tratamiento con una sola dosis de dos anticuerpos (anti-PA y anti-LF), a las 48 horas de que se produzca la infección. Nuestro tratamiento en fase avanzada es único, y dispone de una ventaja enorme en los casos de la vida real cuando una persona infectada podría no ser consciente de la infección o no disponer de acceso inmediato para conseguir un tratamiento propio. Específicamente para estos casos, la aproximación de anticuerpo doble de IQ Therapeutics puede salvar vidas en el futuro, ya que en la actualidad no hay tratamiento disponible para esta fase de la enfermedad". Las elevadas tasas de supervivencia con la Dual Antibody Approach (una combinación de anticuerpos completamente humanos anti-PA y anti-LF) se ha demostrado con anterioridad. A pesar de ello, con la ayuda del doctor Peterson y su grupo de laUniversity of TexasMedical Branch (UTMB), se podrían establecer varias combinaciones de dosis eficaz que han demostrado una supervivencia del 100%. Con el objetivo de eficacia logrado, el desarrollo de IQ de la Dual Antibody Approach se centrará ahora en la confirmación adicional, seguridad humana y estudios de desarrollo avanzados.

Mines scientist receives Marie Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship
Hallgerd Eydal, a post-doctoral research scientist in Colorado School of Mines’ Environmental Science and Engineering Department, was awarded a Marie Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship from the European Union.
She was granted approximately $320,000 for this prestigious award. The fellowship involves two years of research at Mines to begin in mid-August. The third year of the work will be done at the University of Bergen, Norway. The work is to examine the microbial ecology and state of viruses in Yellowstone hot springs.
