| 20120115167 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ISOLATING A TARGET BIOENTITY FROM A BIOLOGICAL SAMPLE - A method for isolating a target bioentity from a biological sample, comprises contacting the biological sample with a magnetically-labelled ligand having selective binding affinity for the target bioentity, or for a determinant on the target bioentity, to form a target bioentity/labelled ligand complex, locating a separation module having a defined fluid flow path in the magnetic field of a magnetic module, the magnetic module comprising an array of at least two magnets in which adjacent magnets in the array are aligned with opposing polarity; passing the biological sample through the separation module to subject the biological sample to the magnetic field while the sample is passing through the defined fluid flow path to magnetically capture the target bioentity/labelled ligand complex by arresting or hindering movement of the complex within the defined fluid flow path; removing the separation module from the magnetic field; and recovering the target bioentity/labelled ligand complex from the fluid flow path. | 05-10-2012 |
| 20110160072 | METHOD OF DIAGNOSING NEOPLASMS - The present invention relates generally to a nucleic acid molecule, the RNA and protein expression profiles of which are indicative of the onset, predisposition to the onset and/or progression of a large intestine neoplasm. More particularly, the present invention is directed to a nucleic acid molecule, the expression profiles of which are indicative of the onset and/or progression of a colorectal neoplasm, such as an adenoma or an adenocarcinoma. The expression profiles of the present invention are useful in a range of applications including, but not limited to, those relating to the diagnosis and/or monitoring of colorectal neoplasms, such as colorectal adenomas and adenocarcinomas. Accordingly, in a related aspect the present invention is directed to a method of screening a subject for the onset, predisposition to the onset and/or progression of a large intestine neoplasm by screening for modulation in the expression profile of said nucleic acid molecule markers. | 06-30-2011 |
| 20110098189 | METHOD OF DIAGNOSING NEOPLASMS - II - The present invention relates generally to nucleic acid molecules in respect of which changes to the DNA or to the RNA or protein expression profiles are indicative of the onset, predisposition to the onset and/or progression of a neoplasm. More particularly, the present invention is directed to nucleic acid molecules in respect of which changes to the DNA or to the RNA or protein expression profiles are indicative of the onset and/or progression of a large intestine neoplasm, such as an adenoma or an adenocarcinoma. The DNA or the expression profiles of the present invention are useful in a range of applications including, but not limited to, those relating to the diagnosis and/or monitoring of colorectal neoplasms, such as colorectal adenocarcinomas. Accordingly, in a related aspect the present invention is directed to a method of screening a subject for the onset, predisposition to the onset and/or progression of a neoplasm by screening for modulation in the DNA or the RNA or protein expression profile of one or more nucleic acid molecule markers. | 04-28-2011 |
| 20100292094 | METHOD OF DIAGNOSING NEOPLASMS - The present invention relates generally to nucleic acid molecules, the RNA and protein expression profiles of which are indicative of the onset, predisposition to the onset and/or progression of a neoplasm. More particularly, the present invention is directed to nucleic acid molecules, the expression profiles of which are indicative of the onset and/or progression of a large intestine neoplasm, such as an adenoma or an adenocarcinoma.

Accordingly, in a related aspect the present invention is directed to a method of screening a subject for the onset, predisposition to the onset and/or progression of a neoplasm by screening for modulation in the expression profile of one or more nucleic acid molecule markers. | 11-18-2010 |
| 20090325810 | DETECTION METHOD - The present invention relates generally to an array of nucleic acid molecules, the expression profiles of which characterise the anatomical origin of a cell or population of cells within the large intestine. More particularly, the present invention relates to an array of nucleic acid molecules, the expression profiles of which characterise the proximal or distal origin of a cell or population of cells within the large intestine. The expression profiles of the present invention are useful in a range of applications including, but not limited to determining the anatomical origin of a cell or population of cells which have been derived from the large intestine. Still further, since the progression of a normal cell towards a neoplastic state is often characterised by phenotypic de-differentiation, the method of the present invention also provides a means of identifying a cellular abnormality based on the expression of an incorrect expression profile relative to that which should be expressed by the subject cells when considered in light of their anatomical location within the colon. Accordingly, this aspect of the invention provides a valuable means of identifying the existence of large intestine colon cells, these being indicative of an abnormality within the large intestine such as the onset or predisposition to the onset of a condition such as a colorectal neoplasm. | 12-31-2009 |
