| 20080281090 | Microfluidic Chemical Reaction Circuits - New microfluidic devices, useful for carrying out chemical reactions, are provided. The devices are adapted for on-chip solvent exchange, chemical processes requiring multiple chemical reactions, and rapid concentration of reagents. | 11-13-2008 |
| 20090017455 | Methods and systems for detecting and/or sorting targets - Provided herein are methods and systems for detecting and/or sorting targets in a sample based on the combined use of polynucleotide-encoded-protein and substrate polynucleotides. The polynucleotide-encoded protein is comprised of a protein that specifically binds to a predetermined target and of an encoding polynucleotide that specifically binds to a substrate polynucleotide, wherein the substrate polynucleotide is attached to a substrate. | 01-15-2009 |
| 20090020148 | METHODS AND DEVICES FOR CONTROLLING THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY AND THERMOELECTRIC POWER OF SEMICONDUCTOR NANOWIRES - Methods and devices for controlling thermal conductivity and thermoelectric power of semiconductor nanowires are described. The thermal conductivity and the thermoelectric power are controlled substantially independently of the electrical conductivity of the nanowires by controlling dimensions and doping, respectively, of the nanowires. A thermoelectric device comprising p-doped and n-doped semiconductor nanowire thermocouples is also shown, together with a method to fabricate alternately p-doped and n-doped arrays of silicon nanowires. | 01-22-2009 |
| 20090036324 | ARRAYS, SUBSTRATES, DEVICES, METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DETECTING TARGET MOLECULES - Arrays and substrates comprising a material, in particular capture agents and/or detectable targets, attached to the substrates along substantially parallel lines forming a barcoded pattern and related methods and systems. | 02-05-2009 |
| 20090053732 | MICROFLUIDIC DEVICES, METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DETECTING TARGET MOLECULES - Microfluidic devices methods and systems for detecting a target in a fluidic component of a sample are shown. In such devices, methods and systems, the flow resistance of various channels where the sample is introduced is adjusted to control separation of the fluidic component from the sample and/or performance of assays for the detection of the target in the fluidic component in a controlled fashion. Such performance is controlled by binding affinity of the target with capture agents or diffusion of the target in the fluidic component. | 02-26-2009 |
| 20090095635 | MICROFLUIDIC RADIOSYNTHESIS OF A RADIOLABELED COMPOUND USING ELECTROCHEMICAL TRAPPING AND RELEASE - Methods and apparatus enable radiosynthesis of radiolabeled compounds using electrochemical trapping and release. The trapping and release of radioactive isotopes all occur inside a microreactor, a vial or similar device, thus eliminating the need for azeotropic drying and several dead-end filling steps, as well as the necessity to move concentrated radioisotopes from one compartment of the chip to another. These and other features allow radioisotope enrichment to be carried out internally within a radiochemical synthesis chip, providing faster and more robust operation, as well as producing very high radiochemical labeling yields. | 04-16-2009 |
| 20090117741 | METHOD FOR FABRICATING MONOLITHIC TWO-DIMENSIONAL NANOSTRUCTURES - A patterning method for the creation of two-dimensional nanowire structures. Nanowire patterning methods are used with lithographical patterning approaches to form patterns in a layer of epoxy and resist material. These patterns are then transferred to an underlying thin film to produce a two-dimensional structure with desired characteristics. | 05-07-2009 |
| 20100009896 | CAPTURE AGENTS AND RELATED COMPOSITIONS, METHODS AND SYSTEMS - Multi-ligand capture agents comprising two or more ligands are described, and related compositions, methods and systems. | 01-14-2010 |
| 20100258785 | Superlattice nanopatterning of wires and complex patterns - Fabrication of metallic or non-metallic wires with nanometer widths and nanometer separation distances without the use of lithography. Wires are created in a two-step process involving forming the wires at the desired dimensions and transferring them to a planar substrate. The dimensions and separation of the wires are determined by the thicknesses of alternating layers of different materials that are in the form of a superlattice. Wires are created by evaporating the desired material onto the superlattice that has been selectively etched to provide height contrast between layers. The wires thus formed upon one set of superlattice layers are then transferred to a substrate. | 10-14-2010 |
| 20110039717 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DETECTING AND/OR SORTING TARGETS - Provided herein are methods and systems for detecting and/or sorting targets in a sample based on the combined use of polynucleotide-encoded protein and substrate polynucleotides. The polynucleotide-encoded protein is comprised of a protein that specifically binds to a predetermined target and of an encoding polynucleotide that specifically binds to a substrate polynucleotide, wherein the substrate polynucleotide is attached to a substrate. | 02-17-2011 |
| 20110166034 | CAPTURE AGENTS AND RELATED METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DETECTING AND/OR SORTING TARGETS - Polynucleotide-encoded capture agents for target detection and in particular modular polynucleotide-capture agents comprising a target binding component, a scaffold component and an encoding component formed by standardized molecular units that can be coupled and decoupled in a controlled fashion, and related compositions methods and systems. | 07-07-2011 |
