Latest Patents
Grazia Pertile holds a patent for "Organic devices for the photoinhibition of excitable cells." This invention involves devices designed to inhibit the electrical activity of excitable cells through the application of a pulse of light. The device consists of a substrate and a photoreactive film made of non-conducting material, which are laid directly on one another. The photoreactive film includes a layer of semiconductor polymer material and has an interface surface that can be placed in contact with an excitable cell and an electrolyte solution. Upon absorbing light, the photoreactive film generates a potential difference across the interface surface, leading to hyperpolarization of the excitable cell's membrane. This innovative method provides a new way to control cellular activity.
