Henning Sakslund 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).

  • SENSOR FOR MEASURING A BIOANALYTE SUCH AS LACTATE
    Publication number: 20100252430
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a sensor including a plurality of electrically conductive fibers. The sensor also includes a sensing material coating at least some of the fibers, and an insulating layer that surrounds the electrically conductive fibers.
    Type: Application
    Filed: March 5, 2010
    Publication date: October 7, 2010
    Applicant: PEPEX BIOMEDICAL, L.L.C.
    Inventors: James L. Say, Henning Sakslund, Michael F. Tomasco
  • Mass transport limited in vivo analyte sensor
    Patent number: 6975893
    Abstract: An in vivo electrochemical sensor including a working electrode, and an analyte-responsive sensing layer proximate the working electrode. The sensing layer is exposed at an edge of the sensor, wherein the sensor signal is limited, at least in part, by mass transport of analyte to the sensing layer. The sensor is configured and arranged for implantation into the body of a mammal for contact with body fluids of the mammal. The analyte diffuses to the sensing element via the edge of the sensor, thereby restricting mass transport of the analyte to the sensing element. This is because the solution-contacting surface area of the sensor edge is much smaller than an open face of the sensing layer.
