Publication number: 20230390759Abstract: An assay device includes a first flow channel of a first size and a second flow channel of a second size disposed within a planar substrate, the second size being larger than the first size. The first flow channel is configured to receive a liquid sample and allow a first flow of the liquid sample within the first flow channel whereby a first analyte of the liquid sample is distributed within the first flow channel as a first monolayer. The second flow channel is configured to receive the liquid sample and allow a second flow of the liquid sample within the second flow channel whereby a second analyte of the liquid sample is distributed within the second flow channel as a second monolayer. The first analyte has higher population density within the liquid sample compared to the second analyte.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 21, 2023Publication date: December 7, 2023Inventors: Ian Kleinemolen, Armando Tovar, Jeffrey Hawkins, Florence Ying Lee, Peter R. Delmenico, Dena Marrinucci, Sean Ford, Rachel Krupa

Publication number: 20220088583Abstract: An assay device as well as a method of use thereof is described. The assay device includes a planar substrate having a top surface and a bottom surface. The assay device further includes one or more flow channels disposed within the planar substrate and extending along a dimension of the planar substrate between the top surface and the bottom surface. The assay device further includes an inlet fluidly coupled to the one or more flow channels and one or more vents fluidly coupled to the one or more channels which are operable to facilitate flow of a liquid sample, such as whole blood through the one or more channels. The one or more flow channels are configured to receive a liquid sample from the inlet and allow flow of the liquid sample.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 26, 2020Publication date: March 24, 2022Inventors: Ian Kleinemolen, Armando Tovar, Jeffrey Hawkins, Florence Ying Lee, Peter R.

Patent number: 7182913Abstract: A sample retention apparatus for use in a device for measuring hemostasis. The device for measuring hemostasis may include a sample articulation apparatus including a guide shaft coupled for articulating motion to a drive motor, a sample carrier secured to and axially moveable along the guide shaft between a sample ready position, a sample testing position and a sample ejection position. The sample carrier therefore articulates in unison with the articulating motion of the guide shaft. A measuring apparatus may include a sensing column. The sample retention apparatus may include a sample cup defining a volume within which a sample may be disposed. The sample cup may be adapted to be operably positioned within an aperture formed within the sample carrier. The sample testing apparatus may also include a sample pin that is engageable with the sensing column. The sample pin may include a tip portion for extending into the sample cup.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2003Date of Patent: February 27, 2007Assignee: Haemoscope CorporationInventors: Eli Cohen, Peter R. Delmenico, Gabriel Ravin, William R. George, John A. Lake

Patent number: 6537819Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for measuring hemostasis. The apparatus includes a torque sensing column having a torque sensing element and a drive ring disposed around a body of the column and in registration with the column so as to allow rotation of the drive ring around a longitudinal axis of the column. The apparatus further includes a first guide shaft rigidly secured to the drive ring, the guide shaft extending parallel to the longitudinal axis of the column and a cup holder movably attached to the guide shaft, allowing the cup holder to move parallel to the longitudinal axis of the column. The apparatus also includes a sample cup adapted to engage the cup holder on a outer surface and the torque sensing element of the torque sensing column on an inner surface.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 2001Date of Patent: March 25, 2003Assignee: Haemoscope CorporationInventors: Eli Cohen, Peter R.

Patent number: 5658239Abstract: The invention discloses a method and apparatus for effectively localizing a stone and targeting a shock wave in connection with extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy ("ESWL"). The technique disclosed by this invention can be adapted for use in connection with any conventional lithotripter. In this invention, an array of at least 3 and preferably 4 or more pressure transducers are used to sense the reflection from the target in response to an initial shock wave or ultrasonic wave. The sensor readings are then temporally shifted relative to one another in such a way as to maximize correlation between the signals from each sensor. The required time shifts for maximum correlation are used to calculate the differences in arrival times of reflected waves at the sensors.Type: GrantFiled: May 31, 1996Date of Patent: August 19, 1997Inventor: Peter R.
