  • Patent number: 12181395
    Abstract: A system and method for determining a viscosity of a fluid medium containing a fluorescent species, including a light source exciting the fluorescent species at an excitation area of the fluid medium to produce a fluorescent signal and photobleaching the fluorescent species, and the fluorescent species diffusing in and out of the excitation area of the fluid medium at a rate determined by an excitation geometry of the light source, a diffusivity of the fluorescent species, and the viscosity of the fluid medium; and a detector detecting the fluorescent signal over time to generate a fluorescence decay curve of the fluorescent species in the fluid medium, where the viscosity of the fluid medium is determined based on a numerical comparison of the fluorescence decay curve of the fluorescent species in the fluid medium with a fluorescence decay curve of the fluorescent species in a reference medium of known viscosity.

  • Patent number: 12162010
    Abstract: A biological fluid filtration system for scanning a biological fluid so as to filter potentially undesirable constituents from the biological fluid for therapeutic or diagnostic purposes. The biological fluid filtration system generally includes a fluid receiving device adapted to receive a biological fluid. A valve including an inlet, a first outlet, and a second outlet is fluidly connected to the fluid receiving device. The biological fluid within the fluid receiving device is scanned by a scanner to produce scanned data relating to the biological fluid. A control unit in communication with the scanner and the valve receives the scanned data and controls the valve based on the scanned data. The valve is controlled to direct the biological fluid through either the first or second outlet of the valve depending upon the constituents of the biological fluid identified by the control unit.
