Abstract of Patents and Patent 

Application(s) 

I. Oxygen-sensing materials and 

methods are disclosed. The materials 

include oxygen-sensing chromophores 

embedded in a solid matrix including 

silk fibroin in an amount by weight of 

at least 50% of the total weight of the 

solid matrix. The solid matrix possesses 

at least partial transparency at relevant 

wavelengths. The solid matrix is 

biocompatible and biodegradable. The 

solid matrix is not a hydrogel. The 

chromophores are distributed 

throughout the solid matrix. Tissue 

oxygenation can be estimated from 

phosphorescence measurements made 

from oxygen-sensing materials

The invention is protected under U.S. 

Provisional Patent Application Serial 

No.63/317,929, filed on March 8, 2022, 

PCT Patent Application Serial No. PCT/ 

US2023/014796, filed on March 8, 2023, 

U.S. Patent Application Serial No. 18/ 

823,853, filed on September 4, 2024. 

The Department of the Air Force may 

grant the prospective license unless a 

timely objection is received that 

sufficiently shows the grant of the 

license would be inconsistent with the 

Bayh-Dole Act or implementing 

regulations. A competing application for 

a patent license agreement, completed 

in compliance with 37 CFR 404.8 and 

received by the Air Force within the 

period for timely objections, will be 

treated as an objection and may be 

considered as an alternative to the 

proposed license. 

Authority: 35 U.S.C. 209; 37 CFR 404.
