Title: Oak Ridge Associated Universities Technology Transfer Program: Annual report, FY 1987

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5715908

Several of ORAU's FY87 technology transfer accomplishments have resulted in improvements in the University Isotope Separator at Oak Ridge (UNISOR), a DOE scientific user facility. UNISOR is a cooperative venture of nine universities, ORAU, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and the state of Tennessee. Three application assessment records were filed for UNISOR, and a patent waiver was granted for a low-level particle beam monitor and current meter. Some activities in the Medical and Health Sciences Division's biochemistry and nuclear medicine programs have resulted in products with commercialization potential. DOE has granted ORAU a patent waiver for a myocardial imaging agent, and a waiver petition for an antihypertensive neutral lipid has been filed and is pending. In addition, ORAU has signed an agreement with a small business to develop and demonstrate the production capability of a small cyclotron. ORAU will work with industry to explore options for further development and commercialization of all three products.
