Abstract: Anti-SARS-CoV-specific monoclonal antibodies, methods of making and characterizing those antibodies, and methods of using those antibodies are described herein. In some embodiments, the antibodies may bind to both SARS-CoV-1 and SARS-CoV-2. In some embodiments, the antibodies bind to S1 of the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 including, for example, to the receptor binding domain (RBD) of S1. In some embodiments, the antibodies may block the binding of SARS-CoV-1 and/or SARS-CoV-2 to ACE-2. Such antibodies are useful as diagnostic and therapeutic agents.

Abstract: The specification generally discloses systems and methods for mixing and delivering fluids in microfluidic systems. The fluids can contain, in some embodiments reagents that can participate in one or more chemical or biological reactions. Some embodiments relate to systems and methods employing one or more vent valves to controllably flow and/or mix portions of fluid within the microfluidic system. Advantageously, fluid control such as a sequence of fluid flow and/or a change in flow rate, can be achieved by opening and closing one or more vent valves and by applying a single source of fluid flow (e.g., a vacuum) operated at a substantially constant pressure. This can simplify the operation and use of the device by an intended user.

Abstract: Disclosed is number coding of pairs (“doublets”) or small sets (“multiplets”) of solid phase carriers which provides distinguishable subtypes of a given type of such carriers, where each carrier type is distinguishable on the bases of a different code. Such number coding is useful for augmenting a coding system, such as a color code, and thereby effectively multiplying the number of “colors” (distinguishable sub-types). It can be applied, for example, to determine whether a sample is homozygous or heterozygous at a number of different sites for one of two different alleles, where the same color code is applied for each of the two alleles, and the alleles with the same color code are distinguished by knowing how many carriers are associated with molecules which detect each different allele.
