SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Abstract of Patents and Patent Application(s)
I. Optical-based microneedle (MN) sensors to detect analytes in
dermal interstitial fluid in a minimally invasive manner are described.
Compared to electrochemical MN strategies, optical sensing is largely
unexplored but has numerous potential benefits, including enhanced
shelf-life, avoidance of drift, decreased impact of biofouling, and a
smaller form factor when not in active use. This strategy also avoids
the considerable challenges associated with both implantable optical
sensors and sensors that employ skin interstitial fluid wicking/
collection for downstream analysis.
Intellectual Property
``Transdermal Optical Silk Microneedle Sensors for Continuous
Monitoring for Physiological Analytes in Interstitial Fluid.'' The
invention is protected under US Provisional Patent Application Serial
No. 63/615,081 filed on December 27, 2023, and PCT Patent Application
No. PCT/US2024/062043 filed on December 27, 2024.
The Department of the Air Force may grant the prospective license
unless a timely objection is received that sufficiently shows the grant
of the license would be inconsistent with the Bayh-Dole Act or
implementing regulations. A competing application for a patent license
agreement, completed in compliance with 37 CFR 404.8 and received by
the Air Force within the period for timely objections, will be treated
as an objection and may be considered as an alternative to the proposed
license.
(Authority: 35 U.S.C. 209; 37 CFR part 404)

Acting Air Force Federal Register Liaison Officer.
