  • Patent number: 11874274
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a sensor substrate in which deterioration of a first specific-binding substance immobilized on a surface of the sensor substrate is suppressed even when the sensor substrate is washed or dried. The present sensor substrate includes a base material; a first specific-binding substance having a property of binding specifically to an analyte, the first specific-binding substance being immobilized on a surface of the base material; and a first sugar molecule. The first sugar molecule is immobilized on the surface of the base material by a chemical bond.

  • Patent number: 11719707
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of detecting CD200L in a female subject from a secretory phase biological sample. Increased levels of CD200L have been determined to be associated with endometriosis. CD200L is therefore a useful biomarker for the diagnosis of endometriosis and a useful target for therapeutic intervention.
