Publication number: 20220018836Abstract: Systems, surrogates, indicators and methods for rapid assessment of sanitation processes are provided. Non-living and non-toxic surrogates applied to a platform or encapsulated in a biological material mounted to a platform are exposed to a sanitation process to be evaluated. Responses to sanitation are measured and quantified using FTIR and chemometrics including principal component analysis (PCA), partial least squares regression (PLSR), loading plots and predictive models. An artificial leaf platform with one or more types of surrogates on one surface and an anchor such as an adhesive film on a second surface is described. Surrogate types include nucleic acid, phage, yeast and algae surrogates. Surrogates may also be attached directly or through a polymer to the platform surface. Surrogates may also be encapsulated or attached to the outside of a biological carrier such as a yeast cell that is free or coupled to the platform.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 10, 2021Publication date: January 20, 2022Applicant: THE REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIAInventors: Nitin Nitin, Mahmoudreza Ovissipour

Publication number: 20200337304Abstract: Rechargeable antimicrobial materials that can provide continuous sanitation of contact surfaces or liquids are provided that are based on functionalized sanitization particles that are either freestanding or coupled to a surface film. The sanitization particles have a carrier particle and one or more antimicrobial agents loaded into, adsorbed onto or bonded to each carrier particle. The antimicrobial agents may also be joined to a polymer or particulates of clay or zeolite that are coupled to the carrier. Sanitization particles may also be coupled directly to a film or through a chemical linker. The particles and films provide methods of enhanced inactivation of antibiotic resistant bacteria, inactivation and dissipation of biofilms, and the reduction or elimination of bacterial pathogens from surfaces, medical devices, on food or in food containers.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 11, 2020Publication date: October 29, 2020Applicant: THE REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIAInventors: Nitin Nitin, Kang Huang

Patent number: 10509036Abstract: Provided herein are methods for selecting/identifying and/or isolating cancer stem cells from a biological sample or a cell culture sample using a fluorescent glucose analog. Also provided herein are methods for selecting/identifying and/or isolating leukemia stem cells and subpopulations thereof. The present invention is based, in part, on the discovery that cancer stem cells can be selected/identified based upon a lower level of fluorescence of the fluorescent glucose analog compared to non-cancer stem cells and that specific genes are differentially expressed in leukemia stem cells compared to non-leukemia stem cells.Type: GrantFiled: May 4, 2017Date of Patent: December 17, 2019Assignee: THE REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIAInventors: Noriko Satake, Nitin Nitin

Patent number: 9714288Abstract: The present disclosure provides compounds comprising modified oligonucleotides and anti-CD22 antibodies. Certain such modified oligonucleotides conjugated to anti-CD22 antibodies are useful for hybridizing to a complementary nucleic acid, including but not limited, to nucleic acids in a cell. In certain embodiments, hybridization results in modulation of the amount activity or expression of the target nucleic acid in a cell.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2015Date of Patent: July 25, 2017Assignees: The Regents of the University of California, Ionis Pharmaceuticals, Inc.Inventors: Michael Oestergaard, Punit P.

Publication number: 20160088853Abstract: The present invention is directed to a process of disinfecting produce, comprising the steps of associating the produce with one or more photosensitizers selected from the group consisting of gallic acid, fructose, riboflavin, sodium chlorophyllin and photo-porphyrin; and exposing the associated produce and one or more photosensitizers to UV radiation sufficient to cause the one or more photosensitizers to generate one or more free radicals. The produce may be fresh produce and may be selected from fresh vegetable and fruits. The present invention may also be used to treat waste water by adding at least one photosensitizer to waste water ant then expose the waste water to US radiation.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 16, 2014Publication date: March 31, 2016Applicants: THE REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, DREXEL UNIVERSITYInventors: Rohan Vijay Tikekar, Nitin Nitin, Aachen Elsinghorst

Patent number: 8535282Abstract: The present disclosure is directed at methods and apparatus to evaluate and monitor healing progress of wound and/or to generate data to modify or identify a treatment protocol. Fluid exudate removed from the wound by a negative pressure therapy device may now be analyzed to identify the progress of wound healing, such as whether healing is progressing in a positive manner or experiencing one or more impediments. The fluid exudates may be specifically analyzed for one or more analytes indicative of one or more of the biochemical reactions that may occur during wound recovery. In addition, one may separately utilize optical sensors integrated into a dressing enclosure, optionally in those dressings employed in a negative pressure therapy device. Such optical sensors may then illuminate the wound and collect information regarding the wound via a light scattering type response.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2009Date of Patent: September 17, 2013Assignee: Southwest Research InstituteInventors: Heather S.
