  • Nano-Chem-Fet Based Biosensors
    Publication number: 20080044911
    Abstract: Methods of detecting a component of interest, a change in charge, a pH, a cellular response using nanosensors are provided. Nanosensors, including nanowires and nanowire arrays comprising functionalized and/or non-functionalized nanowires are provided. Nanosensors are used for detection in cellular fragmentation, multiple concentration analysis, glucose detection, and intracellular analysis.
    Type: Application
    Filed: October 18, 2007
    Publication date: February 21, 2008
    Applicant: NANOSYS, INC.
    Inventors: Larry Bock, R. Daniels, Stephen Empedocles, John Owicki

  • High throughput mobility shift
    Publication number: 20070099200
    Abstract: The present invention provides novel microfluidic devices and methods for performing pulsed field mobility shift assays in microfluidic devices. In particular the devices and methods of the invention utilize differences between electrophoretic mobilities (e.g., as between reactants and products, especially in non-fluorogenic reactions) in order to separate the species and thus analyze the reaction.
