  • SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TARGET THERMAL ANALYSIS IN COMPLEX FLUIDS
    Publication number: 20230049115
    Abstract: Methods for detecting, identifying, and/or quantifying a target molecule in a complex fluid using thermal analysis are disclosed. Exemplary complex fluids include biofluids and environmental fluids. Exemplary target molecules include proteins, peptides, nucleic acids, lipids, carbohydrates, viruses, and combinations thereof. A method for using thermal analysis to determine whether purification affects one or more characteristics, such as binding characteristics, of a target molecule is also disclosed.

  • USING DIFFERENTIAL SCANNING CALORIMETRY (DSC) FOR DETECTION OF INFLAMMATORY DISEASE
    Publication number: 20110301860
    Abstract: Disclosed herein in various embodiments are systems and methods for categorizing biological fluids obtained from subjects into one or more disease or treatment categories. Embodiments of the systems and methods may transform easily obtainable body fluids such as blood, plasma, spinal fluid, and other fluids into signature differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) thermograms that may be used to distinguish a positive or negative correlation with a specific inflammatory disease, such as an autoimmune disease. Also disclosed are methods of detecting, diagnosing, and/or monitoring an inflammatory disease in a subject.
