  • Publication number: 20240101999
    Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to compositions and methods for the production of nucleic acid molecules. In some aspects, the invention allows for the microscale generation of nucleic acid molecules, optionally followed by assembly of these nucleic acid molecules into larger molecules. In some aspects, the invention allows for efficient production of nucleic acid molecules (e.g., large nucleic acid molecules such as genomes).

  • Patent number: 11837363
    Abstract: A computing device for remotely engaging and managing a patient environment displays a video feed of a patient environment, and provides user inputs that, when selected, allow a caregiver to remotely change a condition in the patient environment. Access to the user inputs is restricted based on at least one of a distance between the computing device and the patient environment, credentials of the caregiver, and a condition of a patient in the patient environment.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20220195417
    Abstract: Compositions and methods are provided herein for high throughput synthesis and assembly of nucleic acid molecules. Specific aspects include methods and rules for designing, grouping and pooling of nucleic acid molecules for efficient multiplex assembly, amplification, processing and analysis to obtain error-free assembly products. Provided compositions and methods allow for miniaturization, parallelization, high throughput production and scaling, and cost reduction in gene synthesis workflows.

  • Publication number: 20220090161
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to devices, compositions and methods for designing and producing nucleic acid molecules and the production of encoded proteins using these nucleic acid molecules. In some aspect, the disclosure relates to automation for the in vitro generation of coding DNA molecules, the in vitro transcription of these DNA molecules to generate protein coding RNA molecules, and the in vitro translation of these protein coding RNA molecules to produce proteins.

  • Publication number: 20180363037
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to methods, compositions, and related apparatuses for detection and quantification of nucleic acid molecules associated with a solid surface. Methods can include detecting or quantifying at least one nucleic acid molecule associated with a surface by contacting the at least one nucleic acid molecule with a fluorophore, wherein the fluorophore emits increased fluorescence at a wavelength when in contact with nucleic acid molecule, and detecting or measuring fluorescence from the fluorophore at the wavelength. Compositions can comprise a fluorophore and a nucleic acid molecule, wherein the nucleic acid molecule is associated with a surface, and the fluorophore has the property of emitting increased fluorescence at a wavelength when in contact with a nucleic acid molecule.
