A new technology to clean the blood of victims of radiological, chemical and biological terrorist attacks is being developed jointly by Argonne National Laboratory, the Armed Forces Radiobiology Research Institute and The University of Chicago Hospitals.In addition to cleaning biological and radiological toxins from blood, the technology shows promise for delivering therapeutic drugs to targeted cells and organs. The technology uses components approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and a novel approach to magnetic filtration.
The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 in New York City immediately focused attention on national and personal security. They also raised many questions about environmental safety.When the World Trade Center towers collapsed, the dust that blanketed Lower Manhattan contained a mixture of asbestos, lead, glass fibres, and concrete dust, among other substances. The fires at the site produced emissions of pollutants including particulate matter, which can affect the lungs, and potentially carcinogenic pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and dioxins.
