Patent number: 10107752Abstract: The invention encompasses analyzers and analyzer systems that include a single molecule analyzer, methods of using the analyzer and analyzer systems to analyze samples, either for single molecules or for molecular complexes. The single molecule uses electromagnetic radiation that is translated through the sample to detect the presence or absence of a single molecule. The single molecule analyzer provided herein is useful for diagnostics because the analyzer detects single molecules with zero carryover between samples.Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2015Date of Patent: October 23, 2018Assignee: Singulex, Inc.Inventor: Richard Livingston

Patent number: 9068991Abstract: Cardiovascular disease, e.g., congestive heart failure, is often first diagnosed after the onset of clinical symptoms, eliminating potential for early intervention. The invention provides a multi-marker immunoassay, including cardiac pathology and vascular inflammation biomarkers, yielding a more sensitive assay for early detection of CHF in plasma. A panel consisting of cardiac pathology (cTnI, BNP) and vascular inflammation (IL-6, TNF?, IL-17a) biomarkers provided a sensitivity of 94% for association with CHF.Type: GrantFiled: March 9, 2013Date of Patent: June 30, 2015Assignee: Singulex, Inc.Inventors: Philippe J. Goix, Robert Puskas, John Todd, Richard Livingston, Douglas Held, Sara Le
