  • Nanostructure-based cannabinoid sensor
    Patent number: 12213800
    Abstract: A device for detection of a cannabinoid in a sample includes a sensor including a substrate and a sensor medium on the substrate. The sensor medium includes at least one nanostructure, wherein at least one property of the sensor medium is dependent upon the presence of the cannabinoid on a surface of the sensor medium. The device further includes electronic circuitry including at least one measurement system in operative connection with the sensor to measure a variable relatable to the at least one property of the sensor medium dependent upon the presence of the cannabinoid.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 6, 2023
    Date of Patent: February 4, 2025
    Assignee: University of Pittsburgh—Of the Commonwealth System of Higher Education
