  • Patent number: 11253623
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method and apparatus for providing polyiodide resin-enhanced personal protective equipment (PPE) including but not limited to face masks, gloves, gowns and respirators. The disclosed method comprises the application of a polyiodinated ink polymer in or on one or more targeted surfaces of PPE to create a molecular sub-microscopic protective barrier between the equipment and the user. The disclosed system provides a PPE device capable of direct contact kill of organisms. In addition, the system provides for a sustained kill of organisms for up to 96 hours. The resultant PPE device is broadly effective against viral, bacterial, fungicidal and other microbial agents.

  • Patent number: 11071975
    Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method of treatment which provides a direct response to the treatment of pneumonia as related to infections using a powder comprising a polyiodide resin with broad spectrum bactericidal, fungicidal and virucidal properties. When the powder is applied directly to the lungs of a mammal an immediate contact kill of protozoa, bacteria, fungi and viruses that cause respiratory tract infections affecting the lungs of a mammal takes place. Also disclosed is an application of the polyiodide resin powder for use with personal protective equipment (PPE) including but not limited to face masks, face shields, and respirators.

  • Patent number: 10709819
    Abstract: Disclosed is a catheter with an antimicrobial coating that reduces the development of device-associated urinary tract, respiratory and bloodstream infections and methods for making the same. The disclosed method comprises the layered application of one or more organic solutions to a coatable elastomeric product which results in a device that allows for a controlled time release of iodine therefrom. Application of one or more antitoxic agents in multiple layers and locations on the desired elastomeric product helps to tailor delivery and potency of the antimicrobial coating.

  • Publication number: 20190083682
    Abstract: The invention relates to process for creating catheters that are coated with these layers of elastomeric polymeric coating with an antitoxic agent, antimicrobial resin, affixed to the surface of said polymeric coating. The method of coating an elastomeric material on the exterior and/or the interior includes: (a) providing a base elastomer comprised of an elastomeric polymer; (b) dipping the elastomer in a second organic solution containing a polymer to form a secondary coating over the barrier coating; (d) coating the elastomer with suspension containing polyiodinated resin particulate in an organic solvent to anchor the particulates to the secondary coating; and (e) drying the elastomer.
