摘要:
The present invention provides a microarray for detecting a genotype at a polymorphic site in a plurality of nucleic acid samples, comprising a first set of nucleic acid fragments derived from the samples and a second set of nucleic acid fragments derived from a plurality of references immobilized thereon. The invention also provides a microarray comprising a set of nucleic acid fragments immobilized on the surface of the microarray, wherein the nucleic acid fragments are derived from the samples by amplifying a region in the sample containing the polymorphism through asymmetric PCR amplification. Methods of using and making the microarrays are also provided.

摘要:
A microelectrode sensing device includes a substrate and an array of microelectrode sensors. Each sensor includes a first conductive layer that at least partially conducts electricity. The first conductive layer is formed above the substrate and patterned to include a recording electrode that measures electrical activities of target cells. Each sensor also includes a second conductive layer that at least partially conducts electricity. The second conductive layer is elevated above the first layer and patterned to include multiple positioning electrodes arranged to define a sensing region above the recording electrode. The positioning electrodes are designed to generate an electric field pattern in the sensing region to move and confine the target cells to a sub-region of the sensing region that at least partially overlaps the recording electrode.

摘要:
Nanometer-scaled up-converting fluoride phosphor particles and processes of making them are disclosed. In the process, an aqueous solution consisting of soluble salts of rare-earth metal ions at a molar ratio of (yttrium, lanthanum or gadolinium): ytterbium:(erbium, holmium, terbium or thulium)=(70-90):(0-29):(0.001-15) is mixed a rare-earth metal chelator and a soluble fluoride salt to form precipitates, which are then annealed at an elevated temperature to produce nanometer-scaled up-converting fluoride phosphor particles. The particle size is between 35 nm and 200 nm, and can be controlled by the amount of the metal chelator added to the solution. The nanometer-sized particle is applicable to many biological assays.
