Let's get started
Answer the guiding questions:
- What does your solution do differently? Which concrete problem does it solve? Where is the “flash of insight”?
- Distinguish from prior work: What was prior work? What is your own contribution? Formulate: “What is essentially new is that …”
- Formula: “What is essentially new is that [object/process] now has [new property/capability] by [central measure], thereby [concrete advantage over the state of the art].”
Note your core sentence.
Beispiele
- The invention describes a single-use plaster electrode that measures blood glucose non-invasively by impedance spectroscopy in real time and compensates for motion and moisture effects.
- The invention describes a self-adjusting bicycle derailleur that automatically aligns chain line and cog play, shortens shift time, and reduces mis-shifts.
- The invention describes an ultra-thin, amphiphilic coating that prevents biofouling on stainless steel and can be applied at room temperature.
- The invention describes an energy-autonomous window sensor that detects thermal bridges via thermoelectrics and a micro solar film, transmits only at relevant gradients, and operates for years without a battery.
- The invention describes a new DNA amplification process that uses a cold-adapted polymerase from the Antarctic bacterium Psychromonas ingrahamii and runs at 20–25 °C, so sensitive samples can be amplified more stably.
- The invention describes an inhibitor that acts specifically at miRNA level in tumour cells of triple-negative breast cancer, thereby resensitising chemoresistant tumour cells to standard therapies.
- The invention describes an optimised synthesis process for cyclodextrins that uses a recombinant cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase from Bacillus macerans in a continuously operated membrane reactor, thereby increasing yield, avoiding organic solvents, and reducing purification effort for pharmaceutical formulations with poorly soluble active ingredients.
