20140200167 | FUNCTIONALLY INTEGRATED DEVICE FOR MULTIPLEX GENETIC IDENTIFICATION - A biochip for multiplex genetic identification is disclosed. An biochip for separating and detecting a plurality of DNA fragments includes a set of inputs and chambers for receiving a sample matrix of genetic material and reagents needed to conduct a polymerase chain reaction amplification of the genetic material. The biochip also includes a plurality of separation and detection chambers that physically separate different DNA fragments that have been marked with labels that emit similar colors, thereby enabling the independent detection of the different DNA fragments. | 07-17-2014 |
20140080726 | ENHANCED METHOD FOR PROBE BASED DETECTION OF NUCLEIC ACIDS - A method of detecting nucleic acid fragments is provided. The method includes providing a plurality of sets of probes, each set of probes having a nucleic acid sequence. A first portion of the sequence is complementary to a target nucleic acid sequence, which differs for each set of probes relative to the other sets of probes. A second portion of the sequence is a specified sequence, which is the same for each set of probes. Each probe has a fluorescent label joined to the second portion of the sequence. The first portion of the sequence binds with nucleic acid fragments of a sample having a sequence complementary to said first portion. A quenching compound that has a quenching moiety and a nucleic acid sequence complementary to the specified sequence of the second portion of the sets of probes quenches the fluorescence. | 03-20-2014 |
20140080725 | METHOD FOR SEPARATION AND DETECTION OF DNA FRAGMENTS - A method of detecting nucleic acid fragments is provided. The method includes providing a plurality of chambers, each chamber separated from the other chambers of the plurality, each chamber having at least one set of probes disposed therein, each set of probes being capable of binding to a different target nucleic acid sequence relative to the other sets of probes. The method also includes providing a sample comprising a plurality of sets of nucleic acid fragments, placing at least a portion of the sample into each of the plurality of chambers and causing the at least one set of probes in each chamber to bind with complementary nucleic acid fragments of the sample, and detecting the binding of the nucleic acid fragments to the sets of probes in each chamber. | 03-20-2014 |
