  • Patent number: 10247736
    Abstract: Described herein are methods for evaluating the risk of preterm birth in pregnant subjects. The methods involve detecting and quantifying one or more biomarkers associated with preterm birth in a biological sample from the subject. Also described herein are isolated biomarkers and kits useful in predicting the risk of preterm birth.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 17, 2008
    Date of Patent: April 2, 2019

  • Patent number: 8552364
    Abstract: Methods for proteomic analysis are provided. For example, in one aspect a method for identifying and sequencing a peptide may include fractionating a biological sample containing a peptide of interest to at least partially isolate the peptide, obtaining mass spectra of the peptide, and accelerating the peptide into a collision chamber at a plurality of discrete collision energies for a discrete period of time to form a plurality of peptide fragments for each of the plurality of discrete collision energies.
