20130029857 | METHOD FOR DETERMINING AN ALLELE PROFILE OF NUCLEIC ACID - A method of identifying alleles of polymorphic sites in a plurality of nucleic acid samples including the steps of determining a source tag sharing number “d” for each of the alleles; performing a first reaction in a plurality of pools of the alleles to be identified to produce reaction products including a source tag identifying said each pool; pooling the pools to provide pooled pools; for each of the alleles to be identified, performing a second reaction using said reaction products to produce allele-specific second reaction products comprising a marker tag and a derived source tag; identifying said allele-specific second reaction products to identify the alleles. If “d” is equal to or larger than a maximum pool size, the first reaction may not be performed. Alleles may be binned together. A microparticle comprising one or more capture probes each comprising an oligonucleotide complementary to a subsequence of a target polynucleotide. | 01-31-2013 |
20130029855 | Sieving of Nucleic Acid Samples - A method of selecting nucleic acid samples from a plurality of nucleic acid samples based on desired alleles including the steps of performing a first reaction in a plurality of pools of the alleles to be identified to produce reaction products including a source tag identifying said each pool; pooling the pools to provide pooled pools; for each of the desired alleles to be identified, performing a second reaction using said reaction products to produce allele-specific second reaction products comprising a marker tag and a derived source tag; identifying said allele-specific second reaction products to select nucleic acid sample. In some embodiments, the first reaction may not be performed. A source tag sharing number “d” may be determined for each of the alleles. Alleles may be binned together. | 01-31-2013 |
20130029854 | Method for Determining an Attribute Profile of Biological Samples - A method of identifying attributes in a plurality of biological samples including the steps of determining a source tag sharing number “d” for each of the attributes; providing a plurality of pools for the source tag sharing number “d” wherein each pool comprising a pooled subset of biological samples; for each pool of the plurality of pools, producing at least one pooled pool comprising attribute-specific reaction products comprising a marker tag that uniquely identifies an attribute and a source tag identifying said pool; and identifying said attribute-specific reaction products to identify the attributes. If “d” is equal to or larger than a maximum pool size, the reaction products may not comprise a source tag identifying each pool. Attributes may be binned together. | 01-31-2013 |
