Diffraction Grating-Based Encoded Articles For Multiplexed Experiments

View page
US Patent:
20050227252, Oct 13, 2005
Filed:
Nov 15, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/990057
Inventors:
John Moon - Wallingford CT, US
Martin Putnam - Cheshire CT, US
Michel Perbost - Bethany CT, US
John Quinn - Madison CT, US
Mary Trounstine - New Haven CT, US
International Classification:
C12Q001/68
G01N033/53
C12M001/34
US Classification:
435006000, 435007100, 435287200
Abstract:
The present invention provides methods and compositions directed toward assays of a broad range of analytes using specific targeting chemicals that bind to the analytes. The assays are founded on the use of coded assay articles to which the targeting chemicals are attached. Additionally the codes are such that they are interrogated and determined in real time. The target is analyzed as to identity, presence and quantity in real time. The methods and compositions of the invention are highly suitable for use in high-complexity multiplexed assay systems. All the methods and compositions are based on assay article that includes an optical substrate to which the chemical is bound, and in which is disposed at least one diffraction grating. The grating provides an output optical signal when illuminated by an incident light signal which is indicative of the code in the substrate. In general, coded assay article or sets thereof are employed in assay methods, including multiplexed assay methods, according to which a sample is contacted with an article or a set, and any analytes that bind to the attached chemical are identified according to the code, detected and/or quantitated.

Instrument With Microfluidic Chip

US Patent:
20100165784, Jul 1, 2010
Filed:
Dec 18, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/642665
Inventors:
Stevan B. JOVANOVICH - Livermore CA, US
William D. Nielsen - San Jose CA, US
Michael Recknor - Oakland CA, US
Mary Trounstine - San Leandro CA, US
Assignee:
Microchip Biotechnologies, Inc., a California Corporation - Pleasanton CA
International Classification:
B01F 15/02
F16L 37/56
F25B 21/02
F16K 31/08
F16K 7/00
US Classification:
3661632, 137594, 137 1, 62 32, 251 65, 137861
Abstract:
This invention provides microfluidic devices that comprise a fluidics layer having microfluidic channels and one or more regulating layers that regulate the movement of fluid in the channels. The microfluidic devices can be used to mix one or more fluids. At least a portion of the fluidics layer can be isolated from the regulating layer, for example in the form of a shelf. Such isolated portions can be used as areas in which the temperature of liquids is controlled. Also provided are instruments including thermal control devices into which the microfluidic device is engaged so that the thermal control device controls temperature in the isolated portion, and a movable magnetic assembly including magnets with shields so that a focused magnetic field can be applied to or withdrawn from the isolated portion or any other portion of the microfluidic device. Also provided are methods of mixing fluids. The methods include stacking a plurality of alternating boluses of different liquids in a microfluidic channel, and moving the stacked boluses through the channel. In another method, the boluses are moved into a diaphragm valve having a volume able to accommodate several boluses, and then pumping the liquids out of the valve.
