Abstract:
The present invention features compositions and methods to purify biological samples (e.g., human blood derived leukocytes) using electricity-free tools without cross-contamination to obtain an analyte (e.g., RNA) for downstream diagnostic applications.
Abstract:
The present invention provides methods for rapidly identifying an RNA viral infection using an isothermal nucleic acid amplification reaction that can be carried out extracted RNA in the context of a crude biological sample.
Abstract:
The present invention features compositions and methods for amplifying a target oligonucleotide in a sample, including detection of the target oligonucleotide in real time.
Abstract:
The invention generally provides a sample preparation vessel including a flexible substrate defining at least one sealable opening adapted and configured to receive a solid sample; at least one fitting; and at least one filter adjacent to the at least one fitting, the filter adapted and configured to permit extracted fluids to exit the vessel while retaining solid particles, as well as vessels, circuits, systems, and related methods for sample preparation, extraction, and analysis.
Abstract:
The present invention features compositions and methods for quantifying detection of a target oligonucleotide in a sample in real time. These methods are compatible with target oligonucleotides amplified using a NEAR reaction.
