43 results about "Extracellular dna" patented technology

Extracellular DNA Bacteria can organize into structured communities, called biofilms, that protect them from antibiotics and from immune attack by the host. ... The extracellular DNA is thought to be derived from membrane vesicles. They propose that DNase I treatment may be beneficial to prevent biofilm formation in infection-linked diseases such as cystic fibrosis.

Non-invasive detection of fetal genetic traits

InactiveUS20050164241A1Facilitates non-invasive detectionComponent separationOther chemical processesPregnancyNon invasive
Blood plasma of pregnant women contains fetal and (generally>90%) maternal circulatory extracellular DNA. Most of said fetal DNA contains ≦500 base pairs, said maternal DNA having a greater size. Separation of circulatory extracellular DNA of <500 base pairs results in separation of fetal from maternal DNA. A fraction of a blood plasma or serum sample of a pregnant woman containing, due to size separation (e.g. by chromatography, density gradient centrifugation or nanotechnological methods), extracellular DNA substantially comprising ≦500 base pairs is useful for non-invasive detection of fetal genetic traits (including the fetal RhD gene in pregnancies at risk for HDN; fetal Y chromosome-specific sequences in pregnancies at risk for X chromosome-linked disorders; chromosomal aberrations; hereditary Mendelian genetic disorders and corresponding genetic markers; and traits decisive for paternity determination) by e.g. PCR, ligand chain reaction or probe hybridization techniques, or nucleic acid arrays.
