Publication number: 20030219828Abstract: A method for preparing a molecularly imprinted polymer including the steps of dissolving a print molecule and monomer in an aqueous solution and dissolving a host polymer in an organic phase, preparing an emulsion of the aqueous and the organic phases, polymerizing the monomer to form a polymer composite with the host polymer along an interface between the organic phase and the aqueous phase, separating the polymer composite from the emulsion, and removing the print molecule from the composite, wherein the print molecule is a protein selected from trypsinogen, peroxidase, alkaline phosphatase, and glucose oxidase. A preferred host polymer is polymethylmethacrylate and a preferred host monomer is pyrrole.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 4, 2003Publication date: November 27, 2003Inventors: Waheguru Pal Singh, Anthony Giletto, David Gaskin, James Fyffe

Patent number: 6582971Abstract: A method for molecular imprinting polymers with large biomolecules. The imprinted polymer composite is made by the interfacial polymerization of a monomer in the presence of the print molecule and host polymer. Since polymerization occurs at the interface between an organic solvent and an aqueous solution, the print molecule can be disposed in the phase that allows the print molecule to remain in its native configuration. The choice of the host polymer and the monomer to be polymerized can be varied to enhance the specificity of the composite toward the biomolecule that is selected to be imprinted.Type: GrantFiled: August 21, 2000Date of Patent: June 24, 2003Assignee: Lynntech, Inc.Inventors: Waheguru Pal Singh, Anthony Giletto, David Gaskin, James Fyffe

Publication number: 20020188026Abstract: Dry dipercarboxylic acid material and methods of using dry dipercarboxylic acid particulates to form novel sterilizing solutions or liquid chemical germicides. The dipercarboxylic acids or organic diperoxygen compounds can be synthesized and isolated as solid powders with an extended shelf life. The powders are also soluble in water for quickly preparing liquid disinfectant solutions, whenever and wherever desired, from a potable water source. The dry dipercarboxylic acid materials are selected from diperglutaric acid, diperadipic acid, diperpimelic acid, dipersuberic acid, and diperazelaic acid. Upon dissolution into water, these compounds have demonstrated the ability to inactivate high numbers of spores, including sterilization of medical equipment in 10 minutes at room temperature.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 29, 2001Publication date: December 12, 2002Applicant: Lynntech, Inc.Inventors: Waheguru Pal Singh, Anthony Giletto, G.

Patent number: 6468953Abstract: The invention relates to the formation of antimicrobial solutions formed by ozonating a liquid containing organic precursor molecules. The preferred organic precursor molecules include carboxylic acids, most particularly octanoic acid with or without acetic acid, and alcohols, most particularly greater than 80 weight percent ethanol. The ozonating step is preferably performed with minimal or no water present in the liquid containing the organic precursors. After ozonation is complete, the ozonated liquid may be diluted with water or other solvent to form a use solution for contacting and cleaning a microbially contaminated surface or other medium.Type: GrantFiled: August 3, 2000Date of Patent: October 22, 2002Assignee: Lynntech, Inc.Inventors: G.

Patent number: 6342528Abstract: The invention is a process for preventing microbial growth in the digestive tract of living vertebrate animals, particularly food animals. Control of microbial growth is achieved by the step of applying a percarboxylic acid or a mixture of percarboxylic acids to an aqueous stream which is subsequently consumed orally by the animal. The formulation can also be mixed into food items or into particulate or similar materials, or packaged in ingestible capsules, whereby the active ingredient enters the body of the animal through the oral cavity through feeding behavior, or food scavenging, or particulate scavenging activities of the animal. Formulations may also be sprayed onto the outside of the animal and taken orally.Type: GrantFiled: January 18, 2000Date of Patent: January 29, 2002Assignee: Lynntech, Inc.Inventors: K.
