MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611048939 A) filed by Prof Atul Khajuria; Vijayta Sharma; Dr. Arashdeep Singh; Fasil Rashid Malik; Diya Gupta; Sonia Devi; Jasif Ahmad Malik; Sadhana Devi; and Shakir Hussain Rather, Udhampur, Jammu and Kashmir, on April 17, for 'a system and a method for intelligent mdr organism repository management using thermal-lifecycle validation, adaptive storage optimization, and federated surveillance analytics.'
Inventor(s) include Prof Atul Khajuria; Vijayta Sharma; Dr. Arashdeep Singh; Fasil Rashid Malik; Diya Gupta; Sonia Devi; Jasif Ahmad Malik; Sadhana Devi; and Shakir Hussain Rather.
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: "This disclosure is about a system and method for smartly managing repositories of multidrug-resistant (MDR) organisms in hospital microbiology labs. The system has a processor, a memory that holds a digital registry, a lot of cryovials with machine-readable IDs, a scanning unit, and a storage infrastructure with sensors. The processor is set up to link each cryovial to a digital record, give it a storage location, and keep track of the lifecycle events of MDR isolates. The system also has a thermal lifecycle monitoring module that uses real-time temperature data to calculate integrity scores and a freeze-thaw cycle control module that keeps track of exposure cycles. An intelligent storage allocation engine finds the best places for isolates, and a repository integrity validation engine makes sure they are safe and follow the rules. The system also has a federated surveillance analytics engine and a chain-of-custody tracking module. These make repository management easier, more reliable, and more efficient, as well as improving epidemiological monitoring."
