Show moreSudden Cardiac Arrest is a leading cause of death in the United States, accounting for an estimated 325,000 deaths each year according to the Heart Rhythm Foundation. Cardiac arrest is different from a typical heart attack because it involves a complete stopping of the heart. Brain injury is likely to occur if the cardiac arrest is untreated for more than 5 minutes and a person cannot be revived after 10 minutes of no action. This is because the arrest sets off a chain of metabolic reactions, which leads to swelling of the brain tissue. Cardiac arrest results in ischemia reperfusion injury, which is when circulation is restored and high levels of oxygen rich blood rushes back into the brain causing brain damage. Decreasing the metabolism of the victim may result in a decrease of ischemia reperfusion injury. Reducing the oxygen level that enters the body when the victim revives and slowly increasing this level may also reduce reperfusion injury. However, current procedures dictate that 100% oxygen be given to cardiac arrest victim.

Show moreThe scope of I-Pro 335 is both a conclusion to unfinished work from the previous two semesters along with new projects that will start and end this semester. Work to be concluded and closed-out from last semester:  Final LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) documentation and identification of individuals that might be part of a LEED team should the school desire to pursue that route.  Final design of Americans with Disabilities Act (A.D.A.) elements including a re-design of the elevator, and approval by the client.  Using the Code of Ethics written last semester as a base line, the code will be rewritten to strengthen its objective to provide guidance for the I-Pro. New projects to begin and completed this semester are:  The roof re-design- Green roof options. This may also include storm water retention and grey water recycling systems, as well as any updates to the buildings primary plumbing systems.  Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) - Lab hoods, air conditioning load calculations and Hydronic Heating.  Electrical systems design- Illumination calculations and design, Alarm systems, and ‘Off-heating’ load calculations from equipment to be housed in Alumni Memorial Hall (A.M.H.).  Construction schedule.  Cost estimate.

Show moreFor years, the IPRO Program at IIT has been forced to operate wherever space can be found. Often, facilities are not equipped for the needs of the program. It has become necessary to find a way to give the IPRO Program its own dedicated space. If we give the program its own space, then what is needed in that space? What needs to be done with it? What types of spaces are necessary? What technologies will be used? IPRO 301 exists to answer these questions. We will provide ideas to IIT that can solve these problems. ii

Show moreIPRO346 will focus on familiarizing itself with British Petroleum’s (BP) wastewater treatment plant (WTP) for its oil refinery in Whiting, IN. Specifically, this IPRO will analyze the current permits and their stipulations regarding the amount of ammonia and total suspended solids (TSS) in the wastewater being dumped in Lake Michigan. Ultimately, possible methods and designs will be devised to reduce the levels of ammonia and TSS remaining in treated wastewater. These designs will take the form of a process flow sheet with a computer simulation to model the designs. At the culmination of this IPRO we will have several different models for possible upgrades to the Whiting refinery wastewater treatment plant to reduce the levels of ammonia and TSS in the wastewater entering Lake Michigan as well as a cost to implement each solution.

Title: INTEGRATION OF TANGENTIAL FLOW FILTRATION AND IMMUNOMAGNETIC SEPARATION FOR RAPID DETECTION OF ESCHERICHIA COLI 0157:H7 IN PRODUCE WASH WATER

Show moreEscherichia coli O157:H7 is one of the most commonly reported pathogens associated with microbial contamination of leafy greens. Since washing is a major postharvest processing step, microbial testing of spent wash water has been suggested as a good marker to determine the contamination status of the products. In this study, the efficiency of four commercial rapid methods (BAX®, IQ-Check, Reveal® and mini-VIDAS®) for detection of E.coli O157:H7 in lettuce wash water was evaluated in comparison with the FDA BAM method. The improvement of the detection sensitivity of these tests by immunomagnetic separation (IMS) technology and sample pre-concentration by Tangential Flow Filtration (TFF) was determined. Twenty-five ml of lab prepared lettuce wash water samples were spiked with 0, 1, 10, 100 CFU of E.coli O157:H7, and subjected to enrichment protocols recommended by each of the methods. The presence of E.coli O157:H7 in the enriched samples were then assayed by the test kits, either directly or after IMS (IMS-Pathatrix ™ or IMS-Dynabeads™) treatments. All four test kits and BAM were able to detect E.coli O157:H7 at levels as low as 1 CFU/25ml of wash water. IMS treatments did not lead to further improvement in detection sensitivity. Experiments were also performed to determine the feasibility of incorporating IMS and sample pre-concentration to achieve culture-free detection. Fifty ml of wash water samples were inoculated with E.coli O157:H7 at levels of 0 to 107 CFU and analyzed by the test kits either directly or after IMS-Pathatrix™ treatment. Additionally, 10 L of wash water either prepared in the lab or collected from a commercial fresh-cut processing facility were inoculated with 0 – 106 CFU of the pathogen and subjected to TFF concentration prior to IMS or test kit analyses. IQ-Check showed the highest sensitivity with a detection limit as low as 103 CFU/50ml, and, with IMS, achieved a sensitivity of 100 CFU/50ml. Combining TFF concentration and IMS, 10 L of lab prepared wash water can be tested with IQ-Check and achieve a detection limit of approx. 100 CFU/10 L within 6 hours. For 10L of industry spent wash water, IQ-check also showed the highest sensitivity but the results lacked consistency and required additional evaluations.

Show moreA numerical scheme is presented for classifying the different static bifurcation behaviors exhibited by a nonlinear system in its remaining parameter space. This numerical technique differs from previously published schemes in that the application of singularity theory is done numerically and requires no explicit differentiations of the system in question. It also does not require the reduction of the mathematical model to a scalar equation. The utility of this multivariable scheme will be demonstrated through an application to a seven PDE tubular packed-bed reactor model.

Show moreLocated in Oakbrook, IL the architects and engineers of IPRO 315 will design a 22 story hotel. Together architects and engineers will modify and re analyze a structure created by pervious designers, and select any new materials for construction. In creating the hotel students will be responsible for the structural analysis of columns, beams, foundation, steel, and concrete design required to insure all serviceability requirements. The students will be required to follow the 2006 International Building Code, and secure the safety of all possible occupants. Management, leadership, ethics, and teamwork will be an integral part of building a large scale structure as students learn to work together on a “real life” project.
