MUMBAI, India, March 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641025479 A) filed by Meenakshi Academy Of Higher Education And Research, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, on March 4, for 'personalized safety-controlled ultraviolet chamber system for optimized vitamin d synthesis.'

Inventor(s) include Dr. A. Josephine; Dr. S. Ashok Kumar; and Dr. V. Sureka Varalakshmi.

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: "The present invention discloses a personalized safety-controlled ultraviolet radiation chamber system for optimized cutaneous vitamin D synthesis. The system comprises a chamber enclosure adapted to receive a human subject and a plurality of narrow-spectrum ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation sources configured to emit biologically effective radiation within a wavelength range of 290 nm to 305 nm. A personalization module incorporating optical sensors, imaging systems, spectrophotometric analyzers, and biometric data input interfaces is provided to assess subject-specific parameters including skin characteristics, body surface area, exposure history, and health constraints, and to generate individualized exposure parameters. A closed-loop safety control system dynamically regulates radiation intensity, exposure duration, spatial distribution, and cumulative dose in real time, and automatically terminates radiation upon detection of unsafe conditions. The system further includes shielding and safety interlocks, a thermal monitoring unit, and software-based control units configured to record exposure history, enforce mandatory rest intervals, and provide adaptive dosing recommendations. The invention enables controlled, personalized, and safety-optimized ultraviolet exposure for vitamin D synthesis while minimizing risks associated with ultraviolet radiation."
