Virginia Patent of the Month – July 2024
CoreSyte, Inc. has revolutionized health monitoring with their latest invention—a sophisticated device designed to analyze biological fluids such as sweat in real-time. This cutting-edge technology integrates multiple layers of innovation, including a flexible, adhesive macrofluidic layer that adheres directly to the skin. Beneath this layer lies an electronic core comprising electrochemical sensors, a microcontroller, and a transceiver antenna coil. These components work synergistically to detect and analyze a range of biomarkers present in biological fluids.
Unlike traditional methods that rely on invasive blood tests, CoreSyte’s device offers non-invasive monitoring, making it ideal for continuous use even under demanding conditions. By detecting biomarkers like electrolytes, small molecules, proteins, and metabolites, the device provides valuable insights into an individual’s health status. This capability is crucial for athletes, medical professionals, and individuals seeking to optimize their physical performance and well-being.
The device operates by calculating biomarker concentrations using sophisticated algorithms that factor in the user’s body surface area and input data such as height and weight. This data is wirelessly transmitted to a remote device for further analysis, enabling users to make informed decisions regarding hydration, nutrition, and overall physical condition.
CoreSyte’s invention addresses a critical need for real-time health monitoring without the inconvenience of traditional methods. By leveraging sweat analysis, the device not only enhances performance monitoring but also aids in early detection of conditions related to dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, and other physiological stresses. This breakthrough marks a significant advancement in wearable health technology, promising a future where proactive health management is accessible and effective for all.

What is the R&D Tax Credit?
The Research & Experimentation Tax Credit (or R&D Tax Credit), is a general business tax credit under Internal Revenue Code section 41 for companies that incur research and development (R&D) costs in the United States. The credits are a tax incentive for performing qualified research in the United States, resulting in a credit to a tax return. For the first three years of R&D claims, 6% of the total qualified research expenses (QRE) form the gross credit. In the 4th year of claims and beyond, a base amount is calculated, and an adjusted expense line is multiplied times 14%. Click here to learn more.
