Patents by Inventor Jung-won Keum

Jung-won Keum has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20240409998
    Abstract: The disclosure provides compositions, methods, and systems for implementation of highly multiplexed molecular diagnostic assays involving color combinatorics, stimulus-responsive probes, tandem probes, conjugated polymer probes, and other mechanisms for increasing the number of targets that can be simultaneously detected in a digital assay. Multiplexed detection of targets is achieved in a rapid manner, with respect to sample partitioning and target detection using multiple color channels for detection. Implementation of methods described also achieve detection with significantly improved signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) values.

  • Publication number: 20240352523
    Abstract: This disclosure provides for devices, methods, and systems for performing a non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) digital assay upon generating at least a large number of counts per chromosome for a set of chromosomes present in a sample, where performing the NIPT digital assay can include: distributing nucleic acids of the sample and materials for an amplification reaction across a plurality of partitions; amplifying the nucleic acids with the materials, within the plurality of partitions; and generating counts per chromosome upon detecting signals from the plurality of partitions. The inventions enable processing of samples for NIPT digital analyses and/or other digital analyses involving other loci of interest, with unprecedented partitioning, reaction, readout, and analytical performance.
