    Publication date: October 21, 2021
    Inventors: Jonathan Shaffer, Eric Lader, Niels Tolstrup, Joerg Krummheuer, Daniel Y. Kim, Sascha Strauss
  • Methods for detection and quantitation of small RNAs
    Patent number: 9012149
    Abstract: Improved methods that increase the specificity and sensitivity of detection of small RNAs, including miRNAs, using oligonucleotide primers and nucleic acid amplification, are provided. Reaction conditions that result in preferential decrease in cDNA synthesis of RNAs other than the small RNA molecules targeted for detection during miRNA tailing and reverse transcription reactions are described. Using these reaction conditions greater sensitivity and specificity of amplification of small RNAs including miRNAs is achieved.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 18, 2013
    Date of Patent: April 21, 2015
    Assignee: QIAGEN Sciences LLC
    Inventors: Daniel Y. Kim, Yexun Wang
