MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611049124 A) filed by Nims University, Jaipur, Rajasthan, on April 17, for 'biodegradable wound-healing patch.'
Inventor(s) include Anchal Kumari.
The application for the patent was published on May 29, under issue no. 22/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present disclosure provides a Biodegradable wound-healing patch system (100) for the management of insect bites and prevention of secondary infections in agricultural workers. The system comprises a Biodegradable Substrate Layer (106) formed from a PCL/PLA blend, ensuring environmental sustainability. Integrated with the substrate is a Therapeutic Core (107) containing Chitosan-encapsulated analgesic agents for immediate burst release and PLGA-encapsulated antimicrobial agents for sustained prophylaxis. A Bio-Sensing Module (103) featuring an Iridium Oxide pH sensor array (111) and a Magnesium-Molybdenum bio-battery (114) continuously monitors wound exudate parameters. Upon detecting an alkaline pH shift ( 7.5) indicative of infection, the module triggers a Communication Interface (105), which may be a chromogenic visual indicator (115) or a wireless NFC transmitter (117). The invention provides a self-contained, active wound care solution that accelerates healing, enables early infection detection, and minimizes medical waste."
