ALEXANDRIA, Va., May 12 -- United States Patent no. 12,625,135, issued on May 12.
"System, apparatus, and method for viral monitoring in effluent" was invented by Morton M. Mower (Denver).
According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A system for viral monitoring in effluent includes at least one graphene-based field-effect transistor and circuitry, wherein the circuitry is configured to repeatedly monitor and determine presence of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID virus) in the effluent. The circuitry is configured to apply a gate voltage and measure a conductance across each of the at least one graphene-based field-effect transistor, compare the measured conductance across each of the at least one graphene-based field-eff...
