ROBERT S. KIRSNER 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).

  • Wound monitoring sensors and use thereof
    Patent number: 11076786
    Abstract: The subject invention provides sensor systems that can detect biomarkers related to wound healing (e.g., uric acid, adenosine, arginine and/or xanthine). In one embodiment, the subject invention pertains to materials and methods for monitoring biomarkers non-invasively in a wound and a biofluid (e.g., sweat) in the proximity of the wound, optionally, including other physiological fluids. Skin based, non-invasive enzymatic electrochemical biosensor on a wearable platform (e.g., sweat patch) that can evaluate the healing of wounds through assessment of its biomarker levels are provided. This non-invasive detection from physiologically biofluids can reduce or eliminate occlusion effects.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 1, 2019
    Date of Patent: August 3, 2021
    Assignees: THE FLORIDA INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY BOARD OF TRUSTEES, UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI
    Inventors: Sohini Roy Choudhury, Yogeswaran Umasankar, Shekhar Bhansali, Robert S. Kirsner, Hadar A. Lev-Tov
