20130011832 | Dual-mode microfluidic genetics testing platforms and methods of dual-mode genetics testing using same - Dual mode genetics testing systems are devised about a single element testing platform. A microfluidic network and system of interconnected receiving cells and reaction vessels supports at the same time genotyping and copy number analysis where the platform may be subject to a common thermal cycle schedule to cause the proper reactions (DNA replication) necessary in both test types. Further, the microfluidic platform which includes reaction vessels for genotyping which are spatially removed from reaction vessels for copy number analysis, is coupled to optical scanner and detection systems specifically arranged to apply test specific detection routines on each of these distinct regions or portions of the dual mode test platform. | 01-10-2013 |
20140272950 | METHOD AND SYSTEM TO PREDICT SSRI RESPONSE - The present inventions relates to methods and assays to predict the response of an individual to an SSRI treatment and to a method to improve medical treatment of a disorder, which is responsive to treatment with a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). | 09-18-2014 |
20140274764 | METHOD AND SYSTEM TO PREDICT RESPONSE TO TREATMENTS FOR MENTAL DISORDERS - The present inventions relates to methods and assays to predict the response of an individual to a psychiatric treatment and to a method to improve medical treatment of a disorder, which is responsive to treatment with a psychiatric treatment. | 09-18-2014 |
20150251176 | GENETIC SAMPLE COLLECTION SYSTEMS - Biological sample collection kits are devised with physical features to enable a high performance collection system which delivers preprocessed biological matter via conventional shipping means to a testing laboratories. In particular, untrained and unskilled users deposit biological matter such as saliva or blood into a receiving vessel. By sealing the container, the user causes release of a premixed solution containing preservatives and optionally lysis reagents. In addition, a purification agent is arranged to bind to target molecules and facilitate their removal from solution. These time consuming processes occur while the sample is in transit to the testing facility such that when it arrives, it is in a preconditioned state immediately ready for execution of washing steps. Thus, the high performance containers taught herein are useful for collection biological samples and performing initial process steps on received matter—steps which are largely effected during the shipping stage of the transfer process. | 09-10-2015 |
20150292014 | METHOD AND SYSTEM TO PREDICT RESPONSE TO TREATMENTS FOR MENTAL DISORDERS - The present inventions relates to methods and assays to predict the response of an individual to psychiatric treatment and to a method to improve medical treatment of a disorder, which responsive to treatment with a psychiatric treatment. | 10-15-2015 |

20150376703 | METHOD AND SYSTEM TO PREDICT RESPONSE TO PAIN TREATMENTS - The present invention relates to systems and methods for predicting an individuals likely response to a pain medication comprising genotyping genetic variations in an individual to determine the individual's propensity for metabolizing a pain medication and likely response to a medication, and preferably diverse reactions to a medication. In particular, the invention comprises analyzing a biological sample provided by an individual, typically a patient or an individual diagnosed with a particular disorder, determining the individual's likely response to a particular treatment, more specifically a pain medication, and thereafter displaying, or further, recommending a plan of action or inaction. In particular, the present invention provides a grading method and system to profile an individual's response to one or more pain medication. | 12-31-2015 |
