Arnold Oliphant, Sunny Vale, CA US

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100076185Selective Processing of Biological Material on a Microarray Substrate - The present invention provides methods and systems for selectively eluting biological material from a distinct spatial location on a microarray slide. In one aspect, for example, a method for recovering biological material coupled to a microarray slide can include selecting a biological material to be recovered from the microarray slide, finding the biological material within a distinct spatial region on the microarray slide surface, and eluting at least a portion of the selected biological material from the distinct spatial region without eluting substantial amounts of non-selected biological material from regions of the microarray slide that are not within the distinct spatial region.03-25-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090075343SELECTION OF DNA ADAPTOR ORIENTATION BY NICKING - Aspects described and claimed herein provide methods to insert multiple DNA adaptors into a population of circular target DNAs at defined positions and orientations with respect to one another using nicking reactions. The resulting multi-adaptor constructs are then used in massively-parallel nucleic acid sequencing techniques.03-19-2009
20090111705SELECTION OF DNA ADAPTOR ORIENTATION BY HYBRID CAPTURE - Aspects described and claimed herein provide methods to insert multiple DNA adaptors into a population of circular target DNAs at defined positions and orientations with respect to one another by employing selective capture of defined molecules. The resulting multi-adaptor constructs are then used in massively-parallel nucleic acid sequencing techniques.04-30-2009
20090111706SELECTION OF DNA ADAPTOR ORIENTATION BY AMPLIFICATION - Aspects described and claimed herein provide methods to insert multiple DNA adaptors into a population of circular target DNAs at defined positions and orientations with respect to one another by employing amplification procedures. The resulting multi-adaptor constructs are then used in massively-parallel nucleic acid sequencing techniques.04-30-2009
20090155793APPARATUS FOR HIGH THROUGHPUT SEQUENCING OF NUCLEIC ACIDS - A scalable reaction and detection system for automated high throughput sequencing of nucleic acids involving a combination of chemical processes and observation processes independent of the chemistry processes. Discrete functional units may be configured in a manner that allows the system to interchangeably utilize different sequencing reaction components in conjunction with discrete apparatus components for optical image collection and/or analysis.06-18-2009
20090263872Methods and compositions for preventing bias in amplification and sequencing reactions - The present invention is directed to compositions and methods for nucleic acid identification and detection. Compositions and methods of the present invention include template nucleic acids with stabilizing sequences. The present invention also includes concatemers formed from template nucleic acids that have stabilizing sequences, arrays of such concatemers, as well as methods for identifying and detecting sequences of such concatemers.10-22-2009
