  • Method and system for sample preparation
    Patent number: 9347086
    Abstract: A method for preparing a sample by utilizing a shearing force in the presence of a size stabilizer to break apart the sample to obtain nucleic acid molecules in a usable size range. Once nucleic acid molecules are obtained, magnetic nanoparticles are used to concentrate and clean the nucleic acid molecules for further testing.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 17, 2013
    Date of Patent: May 24, 2016
    Assignee: Integrated Nano-Technologies, LLC
    Inventors: Dennis M. Connolly, Tara Holz, Vera Tannous, Christopher Kilcoin, Konstantin Aptekarev, David B. Bailey, Richard S. Murante, Nate Wescott
