摘要:
Methods and kits for detecting a target nucleic acid in a sample are described. In some embodiments, the sample to be analyzed includes a primer which hybridizes to at least a portion of the target nucleic acid, a probe having a first region which hybridizes to at least a portion of the target nucleic acid and a second region having a detectable label, a polymerase which extends the hybridized primer and an enzyme comprising nuclease activity that can cleave the hybridized hybridization probe to thereby release a labeled probe fragment. In some embodiments, the sample can then be contacted with a solid support comprising surface bound capture probes which can hybridize to the labeled probe fragment(s). These capture probes more readily bind to the probe fragment(s) than to the intact hybridization probe. The label can then be detected on the support surface. In this manner, improved discrimination between the probe fragments and the intact hybridization probes can be achieved.

Methods for detecting a target polynucleotide sequences are provided that utilize a probe having a target-complementary segment and a detectable tag. By cleaving the detectable tab and associating the tag with a tag complement coupled to an electrode, an electrochemical signal can be detected that is related to the presence of the tag:tag complement complex.

A method for deconvolution of digital images includes obtaining a degraded image from a digital sensor, a processor accepting output from the digital sensor and recognizing a distorted element within the image. The distorted element is compared with a true shape of the element to produce a degrading function. The degrading function is deconvolved from at least a portion of the image to improve image quality of the image. A method of indirectly decoding a barcode includes obtaining an image of a barcode using an optical sensor in a mobile computing device, the image comprising barcode marks and a textual character. The textual character is optically recognized and an image degrading characteristic is identified from the textual character. Compensating for the image degrading characteristic renders previously undecodable barcode marks decodable. A system for deconvolution of digital images is also included.

An endpoint defense system uses endpoint health indicators and user identity information to provide fine-grain access control over network resources. For example, the endpoint defense system may include a controller, a set of protection devices, and a set of agents. The agents are software applications installed on a set of endpoints to gather the health information that represents security states of the endpoint devices. The agents send updated health information to the controller. In response to a login attempt, the controller processes the health indicators and identity information through a set of administrator-defined policies to generate a set of access rights. The controller transfers the set of access rights to the protection devices. The protection devices then control user access to network resources according to the set of access rights. The controller sends updated sets of access rights to the protection devices whenever the access rights change.

The present invention generally relates to the detection of analytes, particularly biomolecules in samples. The invention also relates to compositions, methods, and kits for detecting the presence of analytes, typically in multiplex detection formats. The invention also relates to methods for determining the presence of at least one analyte in a sample, the methods employing employ single molecule detection techniques to individually detect at least one molecular complex or at least part of a molecular complex.
