20160102343 | STRAND-INVASION BASED DNA AMPLIFICATION METHOD - A method for detecting toxigenic | 04-14-2016 |
20130157311 | Methods of Determination of Activation or inactivation of Atrial Natriuretic Peptide (ANP) and Brain Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) Hormonal Systems - An in vivo method of determining activation or inactivation of the atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) hormonal systems, the method comprising simultaneously detecting the presence or amount of atrial and brain natriuretic peptide prohormones (proANP and proBNP) or fragments thereof in a sample. | 06-20-2013 |
20130087445 | SONICATION OF A MEDIUM - Sonication of a medium for example in an immunoassay is provided by applying sound waves from a transducer to a vessel in which the medium is held by a sonotrode coupled between the transducer and the vessel. The sonotrode has a recess in which the vessel is held, the recess being formed by facing surfaces of a plurality of protruding portions of the sonotrode separated by slits and arranged around the recess. The sonotrode is coupled to the vessel by dry contact with the vessel without any coupling layers therebetween. The use of such a sonotrode provides the advantages of allowing effective sonication with relatively low energy loss and with a low temperature elevation. | 04-11-2013 |
20110020195 | SAMPLING AND DISPENSING DEVICE - The present invention relates to a device and method for easy collection, dilution, mixing and dispensing of a liquid specimen in a self-contained system. The present invention can be used in combination with numerous testing means for performing chemical, biochemical or biomedical qualitative or quantitative assays in the field of both clinical and hygiene testing. | 01-27-2011 |
20110016073 | METHOD FOR PREDICTING A FUTURE PROPERTY - A method for measuring specific substances and extracting objective information from the measurements that is especially applicable in immunoassays but can also be used in other assays which rely on affinity between binding partners. The invention overcomes problems and difficulties caused by disturbing or interfering phenomena by exploiting a mathematical algorithm which predicts the target value from a series of measurements performed during the reaction. The mathematical method of linear prediction is used for this purpose. | 01-20-2011 |
20100317123 | Method and Device for Detection of an Analyte - The present invention relates to a method, device and kit for analysing a sample for determining the presence or amount of an analyte, particularly carbohydrate, more particularly sugar, in the sample using a fabric. | 12-16-2010 |
20090215200 | Measurement of binding rate of a binding substance and an analyte - A method of measuring the rate of binding of a binding substance and an analyte, for example in an assay such as an immunoassay, uses an initial step of performing ultrasonication sufficient to disrupt binding between the binding substance and the analyte. After cessation of the ultrasonication, measurements are taken to determine the rate of binding at cessation of said ultrasonication or at a predetermined time thereafter The ultrasonication results in knowledge of the precise time of the start of the binding reaction which provides a better rate measurement. | 08-27-2009 |
20090215193 | Application of a reagent to a matrix material - A reagent or particles having reagent supported thereon are applied to a matrix material by a contact printing process for example in which the matrix material is brought into contact with a rotating contact roll having the reagent or particles having reagent supported thereon disposed thereon so as to transfer the reagent or particles having reagent supported thereon to the matrix material. Such a contact printing processes allow high speed and high volume production of an assay device. | 08-27-2009 |
20080308404 | Sonication of a Medium - Sonication of a medium for example in an immunoassay is provided by applying sound waves from a transducer to a vessel in which the medium is held via a sonotrode coupled between the transducer and the vessel. The sonotrode is coupled to the vessel by dry contact with the vessel without any coupling layers therebetween. The sonotrode which is operated in resonance has an arrangement with two protruding portions separated by a slit in the manner of a tuning fork with the vessel being mechanically held in a recess formed between the two protruding portions. The use of such a sonotrode provides the advantages of allowing effective sonication without remarkable energy loss and with a low temperature elevation | 12-18-2008 |
20080260581 | Sampling and Assay Device - A sampling and assay device comprises at least three chamber portions ( | 10-23-2008 |
