  • Patent number: 10267742
    Abstract: The present invention provides for the analysis of colorimetric or fluorometric assays by way of capturing an image of the assay on the camera (32) built into the mobile phone (30). A disposable tool (20) is provided to enable the assay to be positioned an appropriate distance from the phone camera (30). A software application on the phone (30) can then analyze the captured image to determinate a qualitative or quantitative outcome of the assay. In many examples, the test will require no modification of the phone hardware and is thus a convenient and cheap technique for analyzing an assay. In other embodiments, other disposable items such filter(s) (41, 42) and/or additional light source(s) (LED 22) may be provided.

  • Patent number: 10224116
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a dispenser comprising: a) a reclosable opening on, or for fitment on and/or around an opening of, a container having a cavity for receiving at least one unit of a product to be dispensed; b) a controller adapted for controlling the opening of the reclosable opening; c) a receiver adapted for receiving a user authentication signal; d) a power source for powering the controller and receiver; and wherein the dispenser only permits the opening of the reclosable opening upon the receiver receiving a user authentication signal. The invention also relates to a dispensing system, method of dispensing and a kit of parts including such a dispenser. The inventions are particularly suited for dispensing pharmaceutical products to only the intended recipient and also to ensure compliance with dosage regimes.

  • Publication number: 20160320400
    Abstract: The invention relates to biosensors, more particularly to protein biosensors and their use to indicate the formation of denaturing ice crystals in samples. The invention includes the use of a protein as a biosensor to indicate denaturing ice-crystal formation in a sample, wherein the protein is denaturable by denaturing ice crystals from a non-denatured state to a denatured state and wherein said non-denatured and denatured states are associated with detectably different indications, e.g. colour, fluorescence, bioluminescence, protein activity, etc. Biosensor compositions according to the invention preferably comprise a protein comprising a ligand-binding domain and a ligand bindable by the ligand-binding domain. Particularly good results are obtained using proteins, especially fluorescent proteins, having at least one polyhistidine tag and a ligand comprising imidazole or an equivalent polyhistidine-binding component.
