Abstract: Provided are methods, compositions and articles of manufacture for detecting biomarkers indicative of exposure of a mammal to organophosphate compounds. The organophosphate compound includes pesticides, their metabolites and highly reactive organophosphoryl compounds. In one ascpect of the invention, the biomarker results from interaction of the organophosphate compound with a polypeptide such as a serine hydrolase that includes acetylcholiestersae. The interaction of a biomarker so derived with a optical sensor comprising a receptor bound to a biopolymer results in an optical readout that reports the presence of the biomarker. In one aspect of the invention the receptor that is bound to a biopolymer, such as a poly-di- acetylene polymer, is a antibody that selectively recognizes the biomarker.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are reactors and methods for forming alloys based on titanium-aluminium or alloys based on tita-nium-aluminium inter-metallic compounds. The reactor comprises a first section having an inlet through which precursor material comprising titanium subchlorides and aluminium can be introduced. The first section is heatable to a first temperature at which re-actions between the titanium subchlorides and aluminium can occur, and further comprises a gas outlet via which any gaseous by--product formed can be removed. The reactor also comprises a second section which can be heated to a second temperature at which reactions of material transferred from the first section can occur to form the titanium-aluminium based alloy, a gas driver adapted in use to cause any gaseous by-product formed in the reactions in the second section to move in a direction towards the first section, and an intermediate section between the first and second sections. The intermediate section can be heated to an inter-mediate temperature at which at least a portion of material transferred from the first section can accrete and form a cake on a sur-face of the intermediate section and at which gaseous by-product formed in the reactions in the second section can be received and condensed. The reactor also comprises a removing apparatus for removing caked material from the surface of the intermediate sec-tion and transferring it to the second section.
