Cheol Am Hong has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11672756
    Abstract: The present invention provides a temperature sensitive hydrogel composition including a nucleic acid and chitosan. Since the hydrogel has excellent biocompatibility and biostability, and simultaneously has sol-gel phase transition properties depending on temperature changes, the hydrogel is present in a sol state at room temperature and becomes a gel when the hydrogel is injected into the human body or applied on the surface of epithelial skin and the temperature increases. Thus, the temperature-sensitive hydrogel of the present invention can be directly injected into and applied on certain parts requiring treatment and the retention and attaching time of a drug is increased through gelation depending on the temperature so that drug efficacy is sufficiently exhibited. Therefore, it is expected that the temperature-sensitive hydrogel of the present invention can be utilized for various treatments.
