  • Customizable sample processing device
    Patent number: 11602750
    Abstract: A sample processing tubule is provided including, from a proximate to a distal end, an opening through which a sample is introducible, at least three segments, and an reagent introduction port operatively connected to a distal segment of the at least three segments. The reagent introduction port enables the addition of a reagent in the distal segment of the tubule, enabling the user to create a customizable assay tubule.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 25, 2018
    Date of Patent: March 14, 2023
    Assignee: Roche Molecular Systems, Inc.
    Inventors: Thomas Drechsler, Nancy Schoenbrunner
  • Modified sample processing device
    Patent number: 10906035
    Abstract: A sample processing tubule is provided including, from a proximate to a distal end, an opening through which a sample is introducible, at least three segments, and an extraction port operatively connected to a distal segment of the at least three segments. The extraction port enables extraction of a reaction mixture in the distal segment of the tubule without piercing the tubule or one or more seals separating each of the segments in the tubule.
