Patents by Inventor David C. Hagen

David C. Hagen 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).

  • Patent number: 8623282
    Abstract: The present invention relates to devices and methods for measuring the quantity of multiple analytes in a sample. The device is designed such that each of the analyte sensing elements is configured to measure the quantity of a predetermined analyte and where the machine executable instructions are configured to select the proper analyte sensing element corresponding to the analyte to be measured.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20130072666
    Abstract: Provided are labeling reagents and methods for labeling primary antibodies and for detecting a target in a sample using an immuno-labeled complex that comprises a target-binding antibody and one or more labeling reagents. The labeling reagents comprise monovalent antibody fragments or non-antibody monomeric proteins whereby the labeling proteins have affinity for a specific region of the target-binding antibody and are covalently attached to a label. Discrete subsets of labeling reagent and immune-labeled complexes are provided that facilitate the simultaneous detection of multiple targets in a sample-complexes are distinguished by i) a ratio of label to labeling reagent, or ii) a physical property of said label, or iii) a ratio of labeling reagent to said target-binding antibody, or iv) by said target-binding antibody. This is particularly useful for fluorophore labels that can be attached to labeling reagents and subsequently immuno-labeled complexes in ratios for the detection of multiple targets.

  • Patent number: 8323903
    Abstract: The present invention provides novel immunolabeling complexes and certain components of such complexes, as well as methods of preparing and using such complexes, and kits for use in preparing labeling proteins and for immunolabeling. The pre-formed immunolabeling complexes of the invention comprise both a target-binding antibody and a labeling protein that contains covalently attached labels, where the labeling protein binds selectively and with high affinity to a selected region of the target-binding antibody. Novel labeling proteins of the invention include non-antibody peptides and proteins, such as a complex of protein G and a labeled albumin, and monovalent antibody fragments, such as labeled Fab fragments of an anti-Fc antibody. In methods of the invention, the preformed immunolabeling complexes are added to the sample alone or in combination, for purposes of labeling and optionally detecting the target of interest.

  • Publication number: 20090124511
    Abstract: The present invention provides labeling reagents and methods for labeling primary antibodies and for detecting a target in a sample using an immuno-labeled complex that comprises a target-binding antibody and one or more labeling reagents. The labeling reagents comprise monovalent antibody fragments or non-antibody monomeric proteins whereby the labeling proteins have affinity for a specific region of the target-binding antibody and are covalently attached to a label. Typically, the labeling reagent is an anti-Fc Fab or Fab? fragment that was generated by immunizing a goat or rabbit with the Fc fragment of an antibody.
