Unique and Patented Scientific Technology and Intellectual Property
Sentisearch holds the rights to the olfaction intellectual property assets and certain applications titled Nucleic Acids and Proteins of Insect OR83b odorant receptor genes and uses thereof. These applications were developed under a team of scientists at Columbia University and have been licensed to Sentisearch by the University.
The potential uses of the olfaction intellectual property assets derived from the Columbia License consist of know-how related to three families of patent applications relating to:
1.Odorant receptors and their uses;
2.Cloning of vertebrate pheromone receptors and their uses; and
3.Genes encoding insect odorant receptors and their uses
Non-Harmful Insecticides
Insects operate entirely through sense of smell and taste for feeding, mating, locating egg-laying sites and general navigation. Blocking the insect sense of smell and taste may afford a potential strategy to inhibit insect reproduction, feeding behavior, and damage to humans, animals, crops and stored products.
Such a technology would not require genetic modification of the plant or insect and may rely solely on compounds that are natural, non-toxic and compatible with organic farming methods. This technology has the potential to offer a high level of specificity providing for the targeting of an individual species, reduction of environmental disruption and less chance of insect resistance.
Sentisearch’s technology also has the capability to precisely target the receptors of insects only, thereby increasing the likelihood of developing compounds that are non-toxic to both humans and animals.
