MUMBAI, India, March 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641024368 A) filed by Sri Balaji Vidyapeeth; Mahatma Gandhi Medical College And Research Institute; Shri Sathya Sai Medical College And Research Institute; Indira Gandhi Institute Of Dental Sciences; and Dr. Santhadevy S, Pondicherry, India, on March 1, for 'method for preparing nickel oxide-reduced graphene oxide-carbon dot composites for fingerprint visualization.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. R. Kannan; Dr. Valli Rajasekaran; Dr. Vezhavedhan; Dr. S. C. Sharma; Dr. Nagabhushana H; and Dr. Nandini Robin Nadar.
The application for the patent was published on March 13, under issue no. 11/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A method for preparing a composite for electrochemical energy storage and surface-residue image processing is disclosed. The method includes dispersing 0.5 g of graphene oxide sheets in 20 mL of deionized water and subjecting the dispersion to sonication for about one hour to obtain a uniform dispersion. Nickel oxide particles in an amount of 0.5 g are introduced under continuous stirring to form a mixed precursor with physical adjacency between the components. An aqueous carbon dot solution of about 10 mL prepared from carbonized biomass is added while maintaining contact between the components. The mixture is subjected to sonication and stirred. The mixture is aged for about 12 hours, filtered, and dried at about 80 C for about 12 hours. The graphene oxide is chemically converted into reduced graphene oxide while retaining nickel oxide particles and carbon dots."
