摘要: A channel-less microfluidic pump includes a cartridge including a substrate and an actuatable film layer disposed on the substrate, and a manifold having at least three actuatable void volumes separated by a plurality of wall sections and an actuatable flexible layer disposed on the manifold interfacing the actuatable film layer. In operation, the pump can be in an unactuated state wherein the actuatable film layer is disposed against the surface of the substrate or an actuated state wherein at least a portion of the flexible layer and a corresponding portion of the actuatable film layer are deflected into a corresponding void volume thus forming a fluidic volume between the deflected portion of the actuatable film layer and the surface of the substrate. In the actuated state, there is a fluidic gap between immediately adjacent void volumes formed by a thinned region of the flexible layer at a point of contact with a top surface of a wall section. A method of transporting fluid using the channel-less microfluidic pump is described.

摘要: Methods and systems for selectively amplifying a target DNA sequence in the presence of non-target DNA sequence in a sample, comprising: contacting the sample with an oligonucleotide system under hybridization conditions to form a reaction mixture including a forward primer and a reverse primer, wherein either the forward or reverse primer is modified to preferentially increase hybridization between the primer and the target sequence; cycling the hybridization of the oligonucleotide system so that, if the target DNA sequence is present in the sample, the primers hybridize to the target DNA sequence and the reaction mixture results in a first amplified product; and detecting the first amplified product.

摘要: A system and method for strain typing without need for isolation in pure form and subsequent longitudinal strain tracking. The method includes the steps of locating one or more genetic regions present in a target. The genetic regions contain genetic loci that vary among two or more variants (i.e., strains) of the target. A device detects a unique sequence of each of the genetic loci. After a sample of biological material having the genetic loci is obtained, the device generates an amplicon for the genetic regions present in the target. The amplicons are hybridized to complimentary probes, resulting in hybridized probes and non-hybridized probes, which are detected. The detected hybridized probes are assigned an identifier. The device transforms the identifiers into a pattern. The pattern is recorded and compared to one or more other patterns recorded to determine if the pattern is different from the one or more other patterns.
