  • Anti-infection fluidic channel
    Patent number: 12220539
    Abstract: Systems and methods for altering the geometry of a fluid channel to prevent upstream mobility of bacteria, using angled obstacles on the interior of the channel that among other things creates vortices that restrict the mobility. An optimized geometry can be realized by an artificial intelligence algorithm or similar methods based on performance of various configurations of obstacle parameters.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 25, 2024
    Date of Patent: February 11, 2025
    Assignee: CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
    Inventors: Tingtao Zhou, Xuan Wan, Paul W. Sternberg, Chiara Daraio, Zhengyu Huang, Zongyi Li, Zhiwei Peng, John F. Brady, Animashree Anandkumar
