  • Publication number: 20070189921
    Abstract: The invention is directed to a method of analyzing a plurality of biochips. In particular, the method includes inserting a first biochip in to a first station of an analysis device, inserting a second biochip into a second station of the analysis device, wherein each of the first and second biochips comprise a substrate that includes an array of detection electrodes, each including a different capture binding ligand, a different target analyte, and a label, and a plurality of electrical contacts, detecting current as an indication of the presence of the labels on the first biochip and detecting current as an indication of the presence of the labels on the second biochip.

  • Publication number: 20050053962
    Abstract: The invention relates to compositions and methods useful in the detection of nucleic acids using a variety of amplification techniques, including both signal amplification and target amplification. Detection proceeds through the use of an electron transfer moiety (ETM) that is associated with the nucleic acid, either directly or indirectly, to allow electronic detection of the ETM using an electrode.
