		<description><![CDATA[In this episode, Jason Church speaks with Curtis Deselles, an intern with the Materials Research program at NCPTT, discusses the use of eddy currents and eddy current technology in conservation science. Mr. Deselles has built several eddy current analyzers, custom software, and presented on this topic at a non-destructive conference in St. Louis.<br /><br />
NCPTT has been using eddy current technology in preservation and will be bringing this tool to the iPhone platform in 2010. <a href="http://ncptt.nps.gov/Podcasts/archive/Preservation-Technology-Episode-8-Eddy-Currents.mp3">Download Episode 8 as an mp3</a> or <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=285727030">subscribe via iTunes</a>.]]></description>
