  • Method and device for digital high resolution melt
    Patent number: 11915795
    Abstract: Methods are provided for nucleic acid analysis via a platform which incorporates a digital sample partitioning platform such as a microfluidic chip or digital droplet platform and instrumentation to accomplish universal amplification, High Resolution Melting (HRM), and machine learning within reactions simultaneously.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 22, 2017
    Date of Patent: February 27, 2024
    Assignee: The Regents of the University of California

  • METHODS AND KITS FOR PREDICTING CANCER PROGNOSIS AND METASTASIS
    Publication number: 20230375527
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a novel gene signature of metastatic cancer cells and a novel three-dimensional (3D) culture system for use in improved methods of predicting metastasis or prognosis in cancer. Accordingly, described herein are methods of determining a risk of metastasis, methods of predicting prognosis for cancer patients, methods of treating a cancer patient identified at high risk of metastasis, methods of treating a cancer patient identified as having poorer prognosis, methods for determining the migration capacity of a tumor, methods of screening a tumor for sensitivity to a drug, and kits for use in performing these methods.
