Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is a "Method for determining platelet reactivity in a whole blood sample." This invention provides a method for the quantification and assessment of platelet activation in whole blood samples, allowing for the monitoring of antiplatelet pharmacologic agents. The method involves exposing platelets to a physiological concentration of an agonist, resulting in the formation of binding sites on the surface of activated platelets, which can then be measured. This invention is crucial for assessing specific components of platelet activation.
Another significant patent by Alpert is the "Method for reversibly arresting muscle activity." This method allows for the reversible arrest of muscle activity by administering a reagent, such as 2,3-butanedione monoxime (BDM). This reagent selectively blocks the interaction of contractile proteins actin and myosin. By contacting muscle, such as the heart, with the reagent, activity can be arrested, and after surgical procedures or transplantation, the reagent can be removed to restore muscle activity.
