Houston Janitorial Services Creates World Class Training System

Houston Janitorial Services Company has saved numerous Houston companies hundreds of thousands of dollars in operations and maintenance costs by making sure its staff are the best-trained in the industry. The Tier One Safety System has a new tool.

2010-09-30
HOUSTON, TX, September 30, 2010 (Press-News.org) Houston Janitorial Services has done it again. Based on the industry's first Tier One Safety system, Houston Janitorial has ramped up its service processes again. With focus on safety firmly established, janitorial service process training has taken place with service-level staff.

The safety program is called the Tier One Safety System. This system gives facility owners the assurance that the staff in their buildings have the highest regard for safe activity.

The Tier One Safety System has now been enhanced by adding the new Quality Cleaning Process for commercial real estate. Many of their Houston, Texas janitorial service clients, such as Cameron and Whataburger, now benefit from the new process.

The Quality Cleaning Process offers several benefits to clients:
1. Built-In cleaning inspections by service staff added to quality inspections
2. Job-specific cleaning
3. Healthy cleaning guidelines
4. Green cleaning guidelines for Houston area LEED buildings

Houston Janitorial Services CEO states:
"While exploring our service process chain, we found that we could formalize our cleaning processes in the same way our safety training had been formalized. The creation of the Quality Cleaning Process enables our clients to receive a written & branded process which can be used for all of our office building clients."

Triple-negative breast cancers may have unique therapeutic target

2010-09-29
DENVER — Patients with triple-negative breast cancer, one of the hardest subtypes to treat, may have a unique biomarker that would enable them to receive more targeted therapy, according to data presented at the Fourth AACR International Conference on Molecular Diagnostics in Cancer Therapeutic Development. Triple-negative breast cancers are breast cancers that have tested negative for estrogen receptors, progesterone receptors and HER2. Because of this biology, these cancers do not respond to endocrine therapies or trastuzumab. "In other subsets of breast cancer, ...

Circulating tumor cells can provide 'real-time' information on patient's current disease state

2010-09-29
DENVER — Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) may be a promising alternative, noninvasive source of tumor materials for biomarker assessment, according to data presented at the Fourth AACR International Conference on Molecular Diagnostics in Cancer Therapeutic Development. "The basic idea is that CTCs can provide real-time information about a patient's current disease state, acting as a 'liquid biopsy,'" said Siminder Kaur Atwal, Ph.D., senior research associate at Genentech. "They are much less invasive than tumor biopsies because they can be detected from a blood draw and ...

Biomarker panel identifies prostate cancer with 90 percent accuracy

2010-09-29
DENVER — Researchers in England say they have discovered a set of biomarkers that can distinguish prostate cancer from benign prostate disease and healthy tissue with 90 percent accuracy. This preliminary data, if validated in larger ongoing studies, could be developed into a serum protein test that reduces the number of unnecessary biopsies and identifies men who need treatment before symptoms begin. The researchers, from Oxford Gene Technology (OGT) and its subsidiary, Sense Proteomic, Ltd., presented their findings at the Fourth AACR International Conference on Molecular ...

New biomarkers discovered for pancreatic cancer and mesothelioma

2010-09-29
DENVER — Using a novel aptamer-based proteomics array technology, researchers and collaborators have identified biomarkers and protein signatures that are hallmarks of cancer at an early stage for two of the most aggressive and deadly forms of cancer — pancreatic and mesothelioma. This technology would enable better clinical diagnosis at an earlier stage and may provide insight into new therapeutic targets, said Rachel Ostroff, Ph.D., clinical research director of Somalogic Inc. "Currently these cancers are detected at an advanced stage, where the possibility of cure ...

African-Americans equally likely to benefit from erlotinib and other targeted lung cancer therapy

2010-09-29
DENVER — African-American patients with non-small cell lung cancer are just as likely to display an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation in tumors as Caucasians, which suggests they are as likely to benefit from targeted therapies such as erlotinib. "This study has immediate implications for patient management. Patients with EGFR mutations have a much better prognosis and respond better to erlotinib than those who do not," said Ramsi Haddad, Ph.D., director of the Laboratory of Translational Oncogenomics at the Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Institute, and assistant ...

Novel biomarker may predict response to new VEGF receptor inhibitor

2010-09-29
DENVER — Researchers believe there may be a way to predict, based on individual tumors, those patients that are more likely to respond to the investigational new drug tivozanib. This is possible, the researchers from AVEO Pharmaceuticals, Inc. said, because they have used a new way of creating animal tumor models that mimic tumor variation seen in human. Based on the results of these studies, they have found a single biomarker that may predict resistance to tivozanib, an oral, triple VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) receptor inhibitor. Tivozanib is in an ...

Nanotechnology brings personalized therapy 1 step closer to reality

2010-09-29
DENVER — A novel technology can make nanoscale protein measurements, which scientists can use in clinical trials to learn how drugs work. "We are making progress toward the goal of understanding how drugs work in different individuals," said Alice C. Fan, M.D., instructor in the division of oncology at Stanford University School of Medicine. "Using new technologies makes it possible to measure effects of therapeutic agents in tumor cells and different cell populations within our patients. Now that we can make these measurements, we are one step closer to being able to ...

Method to detect bladder cancer earlier is under development

2010-09-29
DENVER — Scientists may have discovered a way to diagnose bladder cancer at its earliest and, therefore, most treatable stages by measuring the presence or absence of microRNA using already available laboratory tests. "Measuring expressions of microRNA in bodily fluid represents a very promising tool with widespread implications for screening," said Liana Adam, M.D., Ph.D., assistant professor in urology at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. Adam presented her findings at the Fourth AACR International Conference on Molecular Diagnostics in Cancer Therapeutic ...
