MUMBAI, India, Feb. 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202521125100 A) filed by Rajarambapu Institute Of Technology, Sangli, Maharashtra, on Dec. 11, 2025, for 'wearable microfluidic smart garment for continuous biosensing and early detection of pancreatic cancer.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Varsha T. Lokare; Prof. Prakash M. Jadhav; Prof. Jayashree A. Patil; Dr. Ramchandra Desavale; Prof. Ganesh S. Wedpathak; Prof. Snehal S. Patil; Prof. Monica S. Patil; and Prof. Arati R. Gavade.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 13, under issue no. 07/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "This invention describes a wearable smart innerwear system designed for continuous, non-invasive early detection of pancreatic cancer. The garment integrates textile-embedded microfluidic channels, multiplexed biosensor arrays, and flexible electronics to detect biomarkers such as CA19-9 and cancer-associated microRNAs in sweat or interstitial fluid. A compact electronic module performs data acquisition, on-garment signal processing, wireless transmission to mobile or cloud platforms, and real-time user alerts. The fabric structure is engineered for daily comfort, moisture management, and washability, while the microfluidic pathways ensure stable dermal fluid sampling and delivery to the biosensors. The system provides longitudinal trend analysis, threshold-based notifications, and optional telemedicine connectivity. By combining advanced biosensing, microfluidics, and wearable electronics in a familiar garment form factor, the invention enables accessible, early risk assessment for pancreatic cancer outside clinical environments."
