Patents by Inventor Haruka HIRAGUCHI

Haruka HIRAGUCHI 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).

  • Patent number: 11879149
    Abstract: There is provided a novel quantification method for quantifying a concentration of EAP, which is a biomarker of depression, an enzyme for quantitation, a composition for quantitation, a kit for quantitation or a sensor for quantitation. There is provided a quantification method of ethanolamine phosphate by adding oxidoreductase to a sample containing ethanolamine phosphate. A mediator may be reduced by adding the oxidoreductase, and the reduced mediator may be reacted with a reagent to determine a concentration of ethanolamine phosphate. In addition, hydrogen peroxide produced by adding the oxidase as the oxidoreductase may be reacted with a reagent to determine a concentration of the ethanolamine phosphate.

  • Publication number: 20230203559
    Abstract: A quantitation method of ethanolamine phosphate capable of measuring trace amounts of ethanolamine phosphate, or oxidoreductase used for the quantitation method thereof, a quantitation composition, a quantitation kit, a sensor chip, or a sensor is provided. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a quantitation method of ethanolamine phosphate including allowing phosphatase to act on a sample to convert ethanolamine phosphate contained in the sample into ethanolamine, and allowing oxidoreductase to act on the ethanolamine is provided.
