  • Patent number: 10344322
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods for detecting and identifying plant events that contain precision targeted genomic loci, and plants and plant cells comprising such targeted genomic loci. The method can be deployed as a high throughput process utilized for screening the intactness or disruption of a targeted genomic loci and optionally for detecting a donor DNA polynucleotide insertion at the targeted genomic loci. The methods are readily applicable for the identification of plant events produced via a targeting method which results from the use of a site specific nuclease.

  • Publication number: 20180313819
    Abstract: The invention provides a means of generation of high numbers of droplets containing content while still diluting the interfering molecules to allow generating large arrays of isolated droplets without increased need to sort more droplets while allowing a higher content. The invention generates a larger group of droplets containing a library of compounds, then removes the empty droplets and retain the contents of full droplets by size exclusion filtration.

  • Publication number: 20180284108
    Abstract: The invention described herein is directed to methods of isolation of all variations of analyte in a sample by binding variations to a particle with attached analytical labels and separating the particles from the sample followed by removing analytical labels from particle and measuring the analyte molecules by the measuring the analytical labels. The separated analytical labels on the particle are then able to be used to measure the variations of analyte binding variations.
