Robnet Thornhill Kerns 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: 10573406
    Abstract: A method is provided for analyzing metabolite data in a sample, comprising analyzing a sample to determine a first number of metabolites, and amount of each metabolite, included in the sample, and a second number of the first number of metabolites that are regulated. Biochemical pathways are determined, each having a third number of the first number of metabolites that are included in the sample and in the determined biochemical pathway. For each of the determined biochemical pathways having the third number of metabolites, a fourth number of the second number of metabolites that are included in the sample and in the determined biochemical pathway that are regulated metabolites is determined. Each of the third number of metabolites within one of the determined biochemical pathways is displayed and distinguished by the amount of each corresponding metabolite included in the sample. An associated apparatus and computer program product are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20140201249
    Abstract: A method is provided for analyzing metabolomics data for a plurality of metabolites. Each metabolite is assigned to a node. Nodes are connected according to a defined relationship between corresponding metabolites to form a nodal network. The nodal network is graphically displayed such that at least a portion of the nodes and the relationships therebetween are visible in a single view. An apparatus comprising a processor configured to control the apparatus to analyze metabolomics data for a plurality of metabolites, as well as a computer program product comprising at least one non-transitory computer readable storage medium having computer program code stored thereon, the computer program code being configured to analyze metabolomics data for a plurality of metabolites, are also provided.
