MUMBAI, India, Oct. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611113207 A) filed by Manav Rachna International Institute Of Research & Studies Mriirs Faridabad on September 22, 2026, for Wearable Apparatus And Method For Real-Time Detection Of Volatile Oral Malodor Analytes.
Inventors include Dr. Saher Javed; Dr. Anmol Mathur; Dr. Mrinal; Dr. Sharmistha Goel; and Dr. Adeeba Saleem.
The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.
Abstract: A wearable apparatus (100) for real-time detection of volatile oral malodor analytes is disclosed. The apparatus (100) comprises a multi-sensor assembly (104) integrated with a mask body (102), adapted to seize expiratory effluent from a human subject. The multi-sensor assembly (104) comprises gas sensors (200), a photoionization detector (202), and biosensors (204). The apparatus (100) further comprises a microcontroller (106) operatively connected to the multi-sensor assembly (104). The microcontroller (106) is configured to receive data related to the detected volatile Sulfur compounds, the detected trace-level concentrations of the Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), the detected metabolic byproducts, or a combination thereof; convert the received data into readable oral malodor readings; and transmit the readable oral malodor readings to an external device (112). The apparatus (100) allows continuous and discreet monitoring of the volatile oral malodor analytes while being worn during regular activities. Claims: 10, Figures: 4 Figure 1 is selected.
