Cristin O'Shea 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).

  • Multiplex compositions and methods for quantification of human nuclear DNA and human male DNA and detection of PCR inhibitors
    Patent number: 9481909
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for simultaneous quantification of human nuclear DNA and human male DNA in a biological sample while also detecting the presence of PCR inhibitors in a single reaction. The multiplex quantification method also provides a ratio of human nuclear and male DNA present in a biological sample. Such sample characterization is useful for achieving efficient and accurate results in downstream molecular techniques such as genotyping.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 19, 2015
    Date of Patent: November 1, 2016
    Assignee: APPLIED BIOSYSTEMS, LLC
    Inventors: Jaiprakash Shewale, Manohar Furtado, Pius Brzoska, Maura Barbisin, Rixun Fang, Michael Malicdem, Cristin O'Shea
