It Came from University Research: The Breathalyzer
Become a URA Scholar and Invent/Create Something of your Own
Did you know?
In 1931 the first practical roadside alcohol breath-testing device was the drunkometer developed by Rolla Neil Harger of the Indiana University School of Medicine. The drunkometer collected a motorist's breath sample directly into a balloon inside the machine. The breath sample was then pumped through an acidified potassium permanganate solution. If there was alcohol in the breath sample, the solution changed color. The greater the color change, the more alcohol there was present in the breath.
A 2003 episode of the science television show MythBusters tested a number of methods that supposedly allow a person to fool a breath analyzer test. The methods tested included breath mints, onions, denture cream, mouthwash, pennies and batteries; all of these methods proved ineffective.

Innovations that came from university research: The Polaroid
Become a URA Scholar and Invent/Create Something!
Did you know?
American scientist and inventor Edwin Land was fascinated by developing an inexpensive method that used polarizing filters to capture and develop images instantly on film. He would conduct much of his research by sneaking into Columbia University’s labs in New York City at night to use the equipment, later returning to Harvard to further his research. He would go on to found Polaroid Corporation in 1948 with one of his physics instructors, which would become a highly successful business. Polaroid also invented and manufactured an instant movie camera system called Polavision. The kit included a camera, film, and a movie viewer. When the movie was shot, it would be taken out of the camera and then inserted into the viewer for development, then viewed after development. This format was close to Super 8mm film. Because it lacked audio capability, and with the advent of VHS video recorders, Polavision had a short history.
Become a URA Scholar and get up to $1500 to invent or create something of your own! Open to all majors- photographers and filmmakers welcome!
Applications and information: ur.umbc.edu/ura
Deadline: This Friday

It Came from University Research: The Pap Smear
Become a URA Scholar and Invent/Create Something!
Did you know?
Dr. Nicolas Papanicolaou innovated what we today call the Pap
smear (named for him) at his medical practice in Greece, but it was tested and brought into
common practice through testing done at Cornell in the 1930s. The Pap test is a method of cervical screening used to detect potentially pre-cancerous and cancerous processes caused by HPV, in the cervix. The Pap test, when combined with a regular program of screening and appropriate follow-up, can reduce cervical cancer deaths by up to 80%.
Apply for a URA and get up to $1500 to support your research or creative work!
Deadline: Feb. 16
