  • Method and system for analysis of compounds
    Patent number: 10140427
    Abstract: The analysis of compounds utilising the physical response of cellular networks is described. Typically, the electrical characteristics of the cellular network are monitored although other characteristics such as fluorescence may be monitored. In any event, the analysis utilises signal processing techniques to derive a set of features which may be evaluated against a library of known responses. The technique may be applied to both the detection and identification of unknown compounds and the detection of concentrations of known compounds.

  • FUNCTIONAL CHARACTERIZATION OF BIOLOGICAL SAMPLES
    Publication number: 20120221256
    Abstract: The invention relates to systems and methods for characterizing tissue biopsies, cells and organisms as a result of predictable responses to known compounds. A sensor is used to detect plurality of features indicative of physiological activity in response to the external. A vector quantity comprising a number of dimensions equal to a number of different features is derived from the signal output of said sensor array and compared to one or more reference values to generate a physiological ‘fingerprint’.
