  • Patent number: 9689047
    Abstract: Methods and materials for determining the presence of at least one nucleic acid in a sample are provided, said methods comprising (1) a purification step using sequence specific hybrid capture; (2) an amplification step; and (3) a detection step using two separate sequence-specific polynucleotide probes. Also provided are nucleic acids comprising SEQ ID NO: 1 to SEQ ID NO: 727 and nucleic acid probes and probe sets comprising the same.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 28, 2011
    Date of Patent: June 27, 2017

  • Patent number: 9422593
    Abstract: Methods and materials for determining the presence of at least one nucleic acid in a sample are provided, said methods comprising (1) a purification step using sequence specific hybrid capture; (2) an amplification step; and (3) a detection step comprising contacting the target nucleic acid with a plurality of detectably labeled nucleic acid detection probes, wherein each (a) bears a different detectable label from the other detection probes, and/or (b) has a different melting temperature from probes bearing the same detectable label. Also disclosed are compositions and kits for use in such a method.
