Patent number: 11740233Abstract: Disclosed herein are antibody-nanoparticle conjugates that include two or more nanoparticles (such as gold, palladium, platinum, silver, copper, nickel, cobalt, iridium, or an alloy of two or more thereof) directly linked to an antibody or fragment thereof through a metal-thiol bond. Methods of making the antibody-nanoparticle conjugates disclosed herein include reacting an arylphosphine-nanoparticle composite with a reduced antibody to produce an antibody-nanoparticle conjugate. Also disclosed herein are methods for detecting a target molecule in a sample that include using an antibody-nanoparticle conjugate (such as the antibody-nanoparticle conjugates described herein) and kits for detecting target molecules utilizing the methods disclosed herein.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2018Date of Patent: August 29, 2023Assignee: Ventana Medical Systems, Inc.Inventors: Julia Ashworth-Sharpe, Christopher Bieniarz, Michael Farrell, Donald D. Johnson, Jerome W. Kosmeder, Adrian E. Murillo, Chol Steven Yun, Zhanna Zhilina

Patent number: 10082508Abstract: The disclosure provides methods for automated characterization of circulating tumor cells (CTCs), for example using automated tissue strainers. In specific examples, such methods permit characterizing a prostate cancer sample by simultaneously or contemporaneously detecting ERG rearrangements and PTEN deletions in the same CTC. Also provided are kits that can be used with such methods.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2016Date of Patent: September 25, 2018Assignee: Ventana Medical Systems, Inc.Inventors: Gary Pestano, Ryan Dittamore, Karl Garsha, Michael Otter, Chol Steven Yun, Alexandra Dea Nagy

Patent number: 9448231Abstract: Embodiments of a system, method, and kit for visualizing a nucleus are disclosed. A tissue sample is pretreated with a protease to permeabilize the nucleus, and then incubated with a nanoparticle/DNA-binding moiety conjugate. The DNA-binding moiety includes at least one DNA-binding molecule. The conjugate binds to DNA within the nucleus, and the nanoparticle is visualized, thereby visualizing the nucleus. Computer and image analysis techniques are used to evaluate nuclear features such as chromosomal distribution, ploidy, shape, size, texture features, and/or contextual features. The method may be used in combination with other multiplexed tests on the tissue sample, including fluorescence in situ hybridization. Kits for performing the method include a protease enzyme composition, a nanoparticle/DNA-binding moiety conjugate, and a reaction buffer.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2012Date of Patent: September 20, 2016Assignee: Ventana Medical Systems, Inc.Inventors: Chol Steven Yun, Brian Daniel Kelly, Julia Ashworth-Sharpe, Christopher A. Bieniarz, Pascal Bamford, Adrian E. Murillo
