- Description
- NASA�s Technology Transfer Program solicits inquiries from companies interested in obtaining license rights to commercialize, manufacture and market the following technology.� License rights may be issued on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis and may include specific fields of use.��NASA provides no funding in conjunction with these potential licenses. THE TECHNOLOGY: This process applies to remediation and restoration of soils contaminated by fuel, polychlorinated biphenyl wastes, etc.� While there can be a general beneficial effect of microbial communities, individual plant-fungus combinations can vary in their efficacy in removal of pollutants from the environment.� Selection of the most effective combination of plants and fungi is very important for achieving the desired benefits.� Not all fungi are created equal as some die off in contaminated soils.� Having a set of enzymes from fungi specifically adapted to conditions in contaminated soils and use of native plant/fungal combinations is a huge advantage.� Ectomycorrhizal (EM) mediated remediation of phenolic-based contamination through use of specifically adapted Soil and enzyme utilizes plant/fungal combinations that are specifically adapted to conditions created by phenolic application to soils and abilities of ectomycorrhizal fungi to oxidize these compounds.� This platform can be adapted to other ecosystems through field assessments of the EM community in each new site. To express interest in this opportunity, please submit a license application through NASA�s Automated Technology Licensing Application System (ATLAS) by visiting https://technology.nasa.gov/patent/TOP2-135 If you have any questions, please contact Ames Research Center ARC-TechTransfer@mail.nasa.gov with the title of this Technology Transfer Opportunity as listed in this beta.SAM.gov notice and your preferred contact information.� For more information about licensing other NASA-developed technologies, please visit the NASA Technology Transfer Portal at https://technology.nasa.gov/ These responses are provided to members of NASA�s Technology Transfer Program for the purpose of promoting public awareness of NASA-developed technology products, and conducting preliminary market research to determine public interest in and potential for future licensing opportunities.��No follow-on procurement is expected to result from responses to this Notice.
