  • Method for spectral study of a biological fluid
    Patent number: 11662303
    Abstract: The aim of the present invention is to propose a novel method for spectral study of a biological fluid from an absorption spectrum of a sample of the biological fluid. The inventors have made an original use of spectroscopy in order to accurately determine the protein content of a biological sample, in particular for oxyhaemoglobin, methaemoglobin, bilirubin and the haem bound to serum albumin. Such a method can be used in a variety of applications concerning haem- or haemoprotein- related diseases, in particular diagnostic methods, treatment follow-up methods, methods for determining biomarkers or screening methods. Such a method is also advantageous for qualifying blood bags.

  • METHOD FOR DETERMINING ONE CONTENT IN PROTEIN AND ASSOCIATED DEVICES AND METHODS
    Publication number: 20220011217
    Abstract: A method for determining at least one protein in the blood which is more precise while still being simple to implement. The method exploits in an original way the spectroscopy and the dosing techniques to determine accurately the content in proteins of the biological sample, notably for oxyhemoglobin, methemoglobin, heme bound to serum albumin and hemopexin and bilirubin. Such method can advantageously be used in various applications concerning heme-related or hemoprotein-related disorders, notably method for diagnosing, for following a treatment, for determining biomarkers or for screening. Such a method is also interesting for qualifying blood bags.
