14 results about "Plate reader" patented technology

Plate readers, also known as microplate readers or microplate photometers, are instruments which are used to detect biological, chemical or physical events of samples in microtiter plates. They are widely used in research, drug discovery, bioassay validation, quality control and manufacturing processes in the pharmaceutical and biotechnological industry and academic organizations. Sample reactions can be assayed in 1-1536 well format microtiter plates. The most common microplate format used in academic research laboratories or clinical diagnostic laboratories is 96-well (8 by 12 matrix) with a typical reaction volume between 100 and 200 µL per well. Higher density microplates (384- or 1536-well microplates) are typically used for screening applications, when throughput (number of samples per day processed) and assay cost per sample become critical parameters, with a typical assay volume between 5 and 50 µL per well. Common detection modes for microplate assays are absorbance, fluorescence intensity, luminescence, time-resolved fluorescence, and fluorescence polarization.

Environment-friendly switch vacuum arc-extinguishing chamber contact temperature monitoring method and system based on surface acoustic wave array sensing and inversion

The invention relates to an environment-friendly switch vacuum arc-extinguishing chamber contact temperature monitoring method and system based on surface acoustic wave array sensing and inversion, and belongs to the field of electrical monitoring. In order to solve the problem that in the prior art, non-intrusive and high-reliability monitoring of the contact temperature of the vacuum arc-extinguishing chamber is difficult to realize due to vacuum sealing and metal shielding, the technical scheme of the invention is as follows: an acoustic surface wave sensor array comprising three or more sensing nodes is constructed on the outer wall of the vacuum arc-extinguishing chamber, and the longitudinal temperature gradient distribution of the outer wall is captured in a lossless manner. A narrow-band flat-plate reader antenna is adopted to realize array signal parallel transmission with a high signal-to-noise ratio, and the steady-state temperature of an internal contact is accurately inverted through a pre-trained physical information neural network (PINN) model by utilizing multi-source data fusion and array characteristics. According to the method, a non-intrusive monitoring function from external sensing to internal deduction is realized, the problem that the temperature of the contact cannot be measured in a high-voltage closed environment is solved, and a key technical support is provided for safe operation of environment-friendly switch equipment.

Fluorescently-labeled f-actin protein biosensors and methods of high-throughput drug discovery

Protein biosensors for drug discovery, such as a high-throughput assay utilizing TR-F to detect the properties of binding proteins (e.g., actin-binding proteins, ABPs) using a fluorescence lifetime plate reader and fluorescent probes. In particular, the present invention is a new use of TR-F technique to rapidly evaluate binding of F-actin (− or +Tm) with cMyBP-C in solution. Changes in labeled actin fluorescence lifetime due to cMyBP-C phosphorylation and / or HCM mutations correlated with binding measured by traditional cosedimentation. The present invention features methods for HTS for identifying molecules that modulate cMyBP-C or cMyBP-C-actin complex.

Modular Strip-Well Assay Kits with Preloaded Reagents

A ready-to-use assay kit for modular strip-well plates employs detachable strips whose wells contain co-located, mutually reactive reagents kept apart during storage by an in-well sequestration structure that encapsulates at least one reagent. Upon addition of an aqueous sample, buffer, or water, the structure releases (e.g., rupturable capsules / microcapsules or a phase-change encapsulant), enabling in-well mixing to form a reaction mixture that yields a detection signal. The kit is configured to operate without transfer of reagents between wells prior to reading. Optional features include in situ lyophilization with lyoprotectants, controlled residual moisture, and an inert-gas headspace. Calibrator and control strips may be provided. Detection can be by absorbance, fluorescence, or luminescence using a plate reader.

MULTIPLE GARNS FOR ENHANCED GENE DETECTION USING CRISPR-CAS12A

ActiveMX434167BDiagnostic systemVirus
CRISPR diagnostic systems have shown great potential for detecting SARS-CoV-2, but improvements in sensitivity, specificity, and turnaround time are needed. Typically, a gRNA with CRISPR-Cas12a is used to detect the target DNA and activate its collateral activity, which is then used to cleave a reporter probe. Here, we demonstrate that the parallel use of two or three gRNAs accelerates the probe cleavage rate by up to 4.5 times compared to individual gRNAs. This synergistic effect is related to the parallel activation of CRISPR-Cas12a and the individual activity of the gRNAs. This observation led to a system that, using two gRNAs, detected the SARS-CoV-2 RNA gene N at up to 10 viral copies after prior amplification with RT-LAMP.The proof of concept of the system was demonstrated with 100% detection of positive and negative clinical samples in ~25 minutes using the fluorescence plate reader and ~45 minutes for lateral flow test strips.
