摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for simultaneously amplifying and detecting nucleic acid sequences in a reaction comprising the following steps: (i) providing a sample comprising at least one nucleic acid molecule; (ii) providing reagents for performing an amplification reaction, wherein the reagents comprise at least four, preferably at least five, more preferably at least six probes, wherein (a) each of the probes is specific for a nucleic acid sequence; (b) at least two, preferably at least three probes carry the same label; and (c) each of the probes that carry the same label has a melting temperature (Tm) which differs by more than 2° C. from the other probes with the same label when they are dissociated from their target nucleic acid sequence by heating; (iii) amplifying the nucleic acid sequences in the reaction; (iv) detecting the amplified nucleic acids by determining whether the labeled probe has bound its nucleic acid sequence; and (v) detecting the temperature at which each given labeled probe dissociates from the nucleic acid sequence to which it has bound. The invention also relates to kits for the use in such a method.

The invention relates to a method and a device for the automatic processing of biological samples which can have a relatively large volume and which can be further processed by a microfluidic system. A container is provided with a filter and can be or is closed. A biological sample is introduced into the container. An inlet or outlet for liquids is mounted downstream of the filter. In order to carry out processing, liquids that are present in the container are not only sucked off through the filter and passed on via the inlet or outlet, but liquids required for processing are also pumped into the container through the filter. The container can be connected to a microfluidic system in a relatively easy manner since only one conduit is required for an automated processing.

The invention relates to a method and a device for processing a biological sample. According to the invention, the processing comprises binding, washing and eluting biomolecules of the biological sample. The aim of the invention is to provide a method and a device for the automatic processing of biological samples which can have a relatively large volume and which can be further process by a microfluidic system. According to the invention, a container (1) is provided with a filter (10) and can be or is closed. A biological sample is introduced into the container. An inlet or outlet (4) for liquids is mounted downstream of the filter. In order to carry out processing, liquids that are present in the container are not only sucked off through the filter and passed on via the inlet or outlet, but liquids required for processing are also pumped into the container through the filter. The container can be connected to a microfluidic system in a relatively easy manner since only one conduit is required for an automated processing.
