Patents by Inventor Gil Bruso

Gil Bruso has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Fabrication of multi-sensor arrays
    Patent number: 8414489
    Abstract: The disclosure provides methods for fabricating a long-term analyte sensor for measuring at least one analyte in the body of a user. The analyte sensors made by these methods include a plurality of analyte contacting sensor elements and at least one structure for relaying information to and from the sensor. The analyte sensor so fabricated further includes at least one sensor protection membrane that is controllable in a manner such that sensor elements may be activated (e.g. exposed to the external environment) at different times so as to extend the useful life of the sensor. In illustrative analyte sensors, the analyte is glucose.
    Type: Grant
