  • Patent number: 11904322
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods and processes for increasing the efficiency and accuracy of nucleic acid sequencing using techniques such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Methods and systems provided herein may facilitate performing reactions such as emulsion PCR (ePCR) on samples comprising nucleic acids and beads. The methods provided herein may provide a higher throughput compared to existing technologies.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 16, 2022
    Date of Patent: February 20, 2024
    Assignee: ULTIMA GENOMICS, INC.
    Inventors: Jose Martin Sosa, Joseph Anthony, Nathan Beckett, Gilad Almogy, Chandan Shee, Phillip You Fai Lee, Yuto Watanabe
  • Patent number: 11891658
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods and processes for increasing the efficiency and accuracy of nucleic acid sequencing using techniques such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The methods described herein can be used to achieve clonal amplification even with a greater than Poisson distribution of beads and/or nucleic acid templates into an emulsion. A PCR method may comprise generating a partition (e.g., a droplet) comprising at least two beads and/or at least two nucleic acid molecules and generating clonal amplification products corresponding to the nucleic acid molecule, at least a subset of which may be attached to a bead.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20210230669
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods and systems for processing nucleic acid samples. Methods for processing a nucleic acid sample may comprise providing a double-stranded nucleic acid molecule comprising a partially denaturable region; partially denaturing the partially denaturable region of the double-stranded nucleic acid molecule, thereby generating a region comprising two single strands; and hybridizing a priming sequence to a sequence of one of the single strands. The methods described herein may facilitate amplification without the need for a multitude of complex steps or numerous reagents.
