  • Heating mechanism for DNA amplification, extraction or sterilization using photo-thermal nanoparticles
    Patent number: 11802309
    Abstract: A heating mechanism for use in DNA applications such as DNA amplification, extraction and sterilization is provided. Nanoparticles having photo-thermal properties are put in contact with a reaction mixture and irradiated with an activation light beam to activate these photo-thermal properties, thereby releasing heat. Nanoparticles of several types may be used. Use of the same nanoparticles or of different one to monitor the reaction using a different light beam is also presented.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 13, 2020
    Date of Patent: October 31, 2023
    Assignee: THE ROYAL INSTITUTION FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF LEARNING /MCGILL UNIVERSITY
    Inventors: Philip Roche, Andrew Kirk, Lenore Beitel, Miltiadis Paliouras, Mark Trifiro, Vamsy Chodavarapu, Mohamed Najih, Joachim Thiemann
