    摘要: The present application includes biomarkers, methods, devices, reagents, systems, and kits for the detection and diagnosis of lung cancer. In one aspect, the application provides biomarkers that can be used alone or in various combinations to diagnose lung cancer or permit the differential diagnosis of pulmonary nodules as benign or malignant. In another aspect, methods are provided for diagnosing lung cancer in an individual, where the methods include detecting, in a biological sample from an individual, at least one biomarker value corresponding to at least one biomarker selected from the group of biomarkers provided in Table 1, Col. 2, wherein the individual is classified as having lung cancer, or the likelihood of the individual having lung cancer is determined, based on the at least one biomarker value.

    摘要: The present disclosure describes the isolation, identification and purification of aptamers having sufficiently high affinity and specificity to capture and immobilize intact sperm cells in the presence of female epithelial cells and other non-sperm semen components. The present disclosure also describes affinity-based methods for the detection of sperm cells in samples, including from forensic sample surrogates consisting of swab eluates containing a mixture of HeLa cells and sperm cells. The present disclosure describes methods for eluting sperm cell samples from swabs; methods for purifying sperm cells and methods for amplification and analysis of male DNA. The affinity-based system described herein is inexpensive, simple to use and easily implemented in forensic laboratories.
