MUMBAI, India, Oct. 31 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202411028211 A) filed by Indian Institute Of Technology, New Delhi, on April 5, 2024, for 'molybdenum disulfide nanoflakes based single-sensor for selective detection of triethylamine.'

Inventor(s) include Ritu Gupta; Snehraj Gaur; Vishakha Pareek; Sukhwinder Singh; and Vansh Bhutani.

The application for the patent was published on Oct. 31, under issue no. 44/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a molybdenum disulfide nanoflakes based single-sensor (100) for selective detection of triethylamine to provide a realistic assessment of potential implications in complex environments and medical diagnostics of volatile biomarkers. Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) based chemiresistive sensor (100) with defects and exposed-edge sites fabricated using Molybdenum disulfide dispersion. The sensor demonstrates extreme selectivity to triethyl amine (TEA) recognition and composition estimation capability in a binary mixture of a similar class of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) with 95% accuracy operable in wide concentration ranges at room temperature with tolerance stability and tolerance to high humidity levels. The present invention also comprises a method of fabrication of the molybdenum disulfide nanoflakes based single sensor (100)."
