Patent number: 11547117Abstract: Disclosed herein is a nano-coating platform that is designed to ‘capture’ and ‘kill’ (i.e. inactivate) virus species to prevent surface to surface contamination/transmission and thereby the spread of novel viruses. The platform is comprised of alternating layers of charged polymers (producing a multi-layer coating). The cationic layer may be grafted with oligomeric species, chosen to bind strongly to unique/specific virus surface features, thereby mediating capture of the virus (with the choice of oligomeric species allowing generalization to a given virus). Natural light (excitation) to UV (local emission) up-converting nanoparticles are seeded into the anionic layer and mediate the inactivation (‘killing’) of the bound virus species.Type: GrantFiled: April 20, 2021Date of Patent: January 10, 2023Assignee: UNIVERSITY OF CENTRAL FLORIDA RESEARCH FOUNDATION, INC.Inventors: Sudipta Seal, Craig Neal, Udit Kumar

Patent number: 11470843Abstract: The present disclosure generally provides topically applicable insect repelling compositions, and in some embodiments, topically applicable insect repelling and UV protecting compositions. The compositions comprise a polymerization product of a polyol, a diisocyanate and at least one insect-repelling compound. The resulting polymers advantageously bond superficially to skin or hair, thereby localizing repellents and preventing systemic absorption. While not being bound by theory, it is believed that the localization of repellents to the surface of the skin renders them safer, wherein such repellents are not vaporized and do not have a disagreeable odor. The repellents advantageously interact with tactile insect activity, thereby preventing parasitic activity, such as drawing blood or the communication of pathogens.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2019Date of Patent: October 18, 2022Assignee: HOUR 72Inventors: Michael Milbocker, Kenneth O.
