  • Publication number: 20230235314
    Abstract: A device for extracting a nucleic acid from a sample liquid includes a heating element configured to be connected to an extraction nucleic acid. The extraction nucleic acid is at least partly complementary to the nucleic acid to be extracted from the sample liquid. The heating element is heatable to a temperature that is equal to or higher than a denaturing temperature of the nucleic acid bound to the extraction nucleic acid.

  • Patent number: 10619151
    Abstract: A method for extracting a nucleic acid from a sample liquid comprises providing a heating element and providing an extraction nucleic acid that is bound to the heating element and/or providing the extraction nucleic acid such that the extraction nucleic acid binds to the heating element. The extraction nucleic acid is at least partly complementary to the nucleic acid. The method further comprises bringing the heating element into contact with the sample liquid such that the nucleic acid at least partly binds to the extraction nucleic acid, and separating the heating element from the sample liquid such that the nucleic acid bound to the extraction nucleic acid remains at the heating element. Additionally, the method comprises bringing the heating element into contact with a reaction solution, and heating the heating element to at least a denaturing temperature of the nucleic acid.

  • Patent number: 9890415
    Abstract: A method for detecting at least one nucleic acid in a solution, comprising the steps of: providing at least one dye, wherein the solution and/or a reaction vessel, wherein the solution is present, comprises the dye and wherein the at least one dye is adapted to emit emission light due to an optical excitation by excitation light; providing at least one absorber in the solution, wherein the absorber is adapted to cause an attenuation of the emission light and/or the excitation light and wherein the attenuation is influenced by a bonding of the at least one absorber to the nucleic acid; and radiating excitation light into the solution and measuring an intensity of the emission light; wherein the attenuation of the emission light and/or the excitation light by the at least one absorber occurs independently of a quantum yield of the at least one dye.
