  • Publication number: 20240425921
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for analyzing a sample for the presence of a target protein are provided. A sample can be processed, the processing generating an amplification product of a template nucleic acid formed in response to a target protein being present in the sample. The amplification product can be contacted with a detection probe to generate a second product comprising a labeled nucleic acid. A lateral flow substrate can be contacted with the second product, the lateral flow substrate comprising a capture moiety configured to bind the labeled nucleic acid. The methods can be carried out in one or more chambers of a single device or multiple devices. Detection probe bound to amplicons of the template nucleic acid captured on the lateral flow substrate can be read visually or using a sensor.

  • Patent number: 6514714
    Abstract: The present invention provides an improved method for detection of panel reactive antibodies in serum of a subject against HLA class I antigens, which comprises the steps of adding serum from a subject to an array of microbeads, each microbead presenting HLA antigens from a cell population presenting the same HLA antigens; incubating the serum and microbeads for sufficient time for anti-HLA antibodies in the serum to bind to the HLA antigens presented on the microbeads; removing the serum components which do not specifically bind with the HLA antigens presented on the microbeads; incubating the microbeads with a labeled ligand capable of specifically binding with anti-HLA antibodies bound to said HLA antigens; removing the labeled ligand which is not bound to said HLA antigens; and detecting the presence of labeled ligand bound to said HLA antigens by flow cytometry.

  • Patent number: 6150122
    Abstract: The present invention provides a kit for the improved method for detection of panel-reactive antibodies in serum of a subject against HLA Class I antigens, which comprises an array of microbeads, each microbead presenting HLA antigens from a cell population presenting the same HLA antigens. In the method, serum from a subject is added to said array of microbeads then the mixture is incubated for a sufficient time for anti-HLA antibodies in the serum to bind to the HLA antigens presented on the microbeads. After removing serum components which do not specifically bind with the HLA antigens presented on said microbeads, the microbeads are incubated with a labeled ligand capable of specifically binding with anti-HLA antibodies bound to said HLA antigens. The labeled ligand which is not bound to said HLA antigens are removed and the presence of labeled ligand bound to said HLA antigens are detected by flow cytometry.
