Antibacterial and Antibiofilm Polyurethane Coating for Intravascular Catheters
Overview Catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSIs) are a leading cause of hospital-acquired infections worldwide. Our auranofin-releasing antibacterial and antibiofilm polyurethane catheter coating kills bacteria and prevents them from forming hard-to-eliminate biofilms. Market Opportunity Intravascular catheters are used for hemodynamic monitoring,...

Advanced Photonics for Brain Imaging with High Spatiotemporal Resolution
­Overview We have developed a new type of noninvasive mobile neurotechnology that enables extremely sensitive, accurate, and high-resolution brain imaging. Market Opportunity Brain imaging has long been restricted to clinical and other specialized centers, mainly because of the large, complex, and expensive equipment required. Yet, to truly understand...

A novel optical method for accurate blood oxygenation measurements independent of skin tone and other skin contributions
Overview Blood oxygen monitors have become a common sight during the COVID-19 pandemic, as oxygen depletion in the bloodstream can be a warning sign of infection. Often placed onto a patient’s fingertip, these monitors rely on established photoplethysmography (PPG) technology which shines light on the skin and measures changes in how much of...

Ultrasensitive magnetic sensors using magnetic tunneling junctions incorporated with multiple stages of magnetic flux concentrators
­Ultrasensitive Magnetic Tunneling Junction Sensor Overview The sensitivity of current magnetic sensors is often inadequate. Our novel technology incorporates an on-chip magnetic flux concentrator (onMFC) and an external magnetic flux concentrator (exMFC) on a magnetic tunneling junction sensor placed on a silicon wafer. These double-staged MFCs...
