Abstract: A method of forming a pyrolysed biocarbon from a pyrolyzable organic material is delineated. The method involves the conversion of pyrolyzable organic materials to biocarbon for subsequent use. A carbonization circuit is employed with individual feedstock segments being advanced through the circuit. The method facilitates user manipulation of rate of advancement of the feedstock through the circuit, selective collation of volatiles from pyrolyzing feedstock, selective exposure of predetermined feedstock segments to collated volatiles as well as thermal recovery and redistribution as desired by the user. This results in the capacity for a customizable biocarbon product, the latter being an auxiliary feature of the methodology.

Abstract: The invention provides methods for identifying early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who will have a favorable prognosis for the recurrence of lung cancer after surgical resection. The invention is based on the discovery that assessment of chromosomal copy number abnormalities at two or more of chromosome 5p15, 7p12, 8q24 and centromere 6 can be used for prognostic classification. The invention preferably uses fluorescence in situ hybridization with fluorescently labeled nu-cleic acid probes to hybridize to patient samples to quantify the chromosomal copy number of the these genetic loci. Assessment of the copy number abnormality patterns using four classifiers produced statistically significant prognostic classification for NSCLC: (i) the Range3 pattern of cells showing a difference on a cell by cell basis, of at least three FISH probe signals between the FISH signals at the chromosomal locus with the largest number of FISH  signals minus the FISH signals at the chromosomal locus with the lowest number of FISH signals; (ii) the MYC/EGFR % loss pattern assessing the percentage of cells showing fewer MYC FISH probe signals than EGFR FISH probe signals; (iii) a combination of the Range3 pattern and the MYC/CEP6 ratio pat-tern of a percentage of cells showing a relative loss of MYC FISH probe signals to the FISH probe signal for CEP6; (iv) the com-bination of the WC/5p15 ratio pattern showing the relative ratio of MYC  and 5p15 locus signals of =0.80 and the 5p15/CEP6 ratio pattern assessing percentage of cells having a relative ratio of 5p15 FISH probe signals to CEP6 FISH probe signals =1.1 versus MYC/5p15 ratio of <0.80 or 5p15/CEP6 <1.1; and (v) a combination of the average range of probe signal differences of equal to or greater than about 2.5 with the Range3 pattern in a percentage of the cells. The invention can be used to identify those early stage NSCLC patients at higher risk of recurrence who should be treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy before surgery or with adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery.
