Patents by Inventor Antony Hubbard

Antony Hubbard has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20240084395
    Abstract: Single-stranded oligonucleotide probes, systems, kits and methods for chromosome enumeration, gene copy enumeration, or tissue diagnostics. The probes are particularly suited for detecting gene amplification, deletion, or rearrangement in tissue samples in a single, dual, or multiplexed assay. The probes exhibit improved performance compared to industry leading dual-stranded probes; particularly in terms of the rate of hybridization.
    Type: Application
    Filed: August 29, 2023
    Publication date: March 14, 2024
    Inventors: Michael Farrell, Antony Hubbard, Donald Johnson, Brian Kelly, Taylor Shingler, Lei Tang, Wenjun Zhang

  • Publication number: 20220098676
    Abstract: Single-stranded oligonucleotide probes, systems, kits and methods for chromosome enumeration, gene copy enumeration, or tissue diagnostics. The probes are particularly suited for detecting gene amplification, deletion, or rearrangement in tissue samples in a single, dual, or multiplexed assay. The probes exhibit improved performance compared to industry leading dual-stranded probes; particularly in terms of the rate of hybridization and the ability to achieve specific hybridization without blocking DNA.

  • Publication number: 20180095082
    Abstract: Methods, systems, compositions, and thermochemical processes for inactivating proteinaceous binding entities (PBEs) such as antibodies in between staining cycles for preventing cross-reactivity in subsequent staining cycles. The thermochemical methods, compositions, or systems may feature incubating a sample in a solution comprising a buffer at a temperature sufficient to reduce or eliminate further detectability of the PBE. The methods, compositions, and systems may be beneficial for automated assays in automated staining devices that are adapted to dispense buffers and reagents and to heat samples to various temperatures.
