Publication number: 20230295711Abstract: Provided herein are compositions and methods for sequencing using at least altering electrical characteristics of polymer bridges. In some examples, the bridges may span the space between first and second electrodes and may include first and second polymer chains that are hybridized to one another. A plurality of nucleotides may be coupled to corresponding labels. A polymerase may be coupled to the bridge and may add nucleotides to a first polynucleotide using at least a sequence of a second polynucleotide. The labels corresponding to those nucleotides respectively may alter hybridization between the first and second polymer chains. Detection circuitry may detect a sequence in which the polymerase adds the nucleotides to the first polynucleotide using at least changes in an electrical signal through the bridge, the changes being responsive to the respective alterations of hybridization using the labels corresponding to those nucleotides.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 24, 2021Publication date: September 21, 2023Applicant: Illumina, Inc.Inventors: Jeffrey Mandell, Maria Candelaria Rogert Bacigalupo

Patent number: RE49884Abstract: A system and method for imaging biological samples on multiple surfaces of a support structure are disclosed. The support structure may be a flow cell through which a reagent fluid is allowed to flow and interact with the biological samples. Excitation radiation from at least one radiation source may be used to excite the biological samples on multiple surfaces. In this manner, fluorescent emission radiation may be generated from the biological samples and subsequently captured and detected by detection optics and at least one detector. The detected fluorescent emission radiation may then be used to generate image data. This imaging of multiple surfaces may be accomplished either sequentially or simultaneously. In addition, the techniques of the present invention may be used with any type of imaging system. For instance, both epifluorescent and total internal reflection methods may benefit from the techniques of the present invention.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 2021Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: ILLUMINA, INC.Inventors: Wenyi Feng, Jason Bryant, Steven Barnard, Maria Candelaria Rogert Bacigalupo
