Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100133118ELECTROCHEMICAL METHODS OF DETECTING NUCLEIC ACID HYBRIDIZATION - In accordance with the present invention, there are provided systems for detecting hybridization of nucleic acids using electrochemical methods having improved sensitivity. Such systems include an electrode having a variably charged oligonucleotide probe and a redox probe. In some embodiments, the systems may further include a binding nexus having an immobilized reporter oligonucleotide probe, which hybridizes to a target nucleic acid sequence. The reporter oligonucleotide probe may be naturally charged, uncharged, or either partially negatively or positively charged. Further provided are methods for detecting the presence of a nucleic acid sequence of interest in a sample.06-03-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080231809Method for Measuring Intraocular Lens - The invention relates to a method for measuring an optimally adapted intraocular lens for patients having a refractively modified cornea. The inventive method includes the following steps: determining the formula-specific corneal refractive powers before the refractive intervention; determining the formula-specific corneal refractive powers after the refractive intervention, and; putting the formula-specific corneal refractive powers before and after the refractive intervention into the respective IOL formula.09-25-2008
