  • System and method for movement and timing control
    Patent number: 10207269
    Abstract: The present invention relates to fluidic systems for controlling one or more fluids and/or one or more reagents. These systems can be used in combination with one or more devices for assaying, processing, and/or storing samples. In particular, the systems and related methods can allow for dispensing fluid in a controlled manner and/or introducing pause(s) when implementing assays or processes.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 18, 2014
    Date of Patent: February 19, 2019
    Assignee: California Institute of Technology
    Inventors: Rustem F. Ismagilov, Feng Shen, Liang Li, David Selck, Joe Baker, Espir Kahatt, Chris Da Costa
  • Fluidic devices and systems for sample preparation or autonomous analysis
    Patent number: 9822356
    Abstract: The present invention relates to fluidic devices for preparing, processing, storing, preserving, and/or analyzing samples. In particular, the devices and related systems and methods allow for preparing and/or analyzing samples (e.g., biospecimen samples) by using one or more of capture regions and/or automated analysis.

  • Single reaction synthesis of texturized catalysts
    Patent number: 9079164
    Abstract: Methods are described for making a texturized catalyst. The textural promoter may be a high-surface area, high-porosity, stable metal oxide support. The catalyst is manufactured by reacting catalyst precursor materials and support materials in a single, solvent deficient reaction to form a catalyst. The catalyst may be particles or a coating or partial coating of a support surface.
