Title: The Innovations of Patrick Cunningham
Introduction
Patrick Cunningham is an accomplished inventor based in Indianapolis, IN. He has made significant contributions to the field of medical diagnostics, particularly through his innovative work on test strips for determining triglyceride concentrations. His inventions have the potential to enhance the accuracy and reliability of medical testing.
Latest Patents
Cunningham holds a patent for a dry-phase triglycerides test strip. This test strip can be stored at room or elevated temperatures for several months without significant degradation in its effectiveness. The test strip includes a test membrane that receives plasma and forms a colored response in proportion to the concentration of triglycerides in the plasma. Notably, the test membrane is impregnated with an aqueous solution containing lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and 4-aminoantipyrine (4AAP). The inventors discovered that by reducing the pH of the impregnating solution to less than 6.0, the overall stability of the test strips was dramatically improved. This advancement represents a significant leap in the storage capability of triglycerides test strips.
