  • Patent number: 12098434
    Abstract: Provided herein is a method for detecting the presence of a COVID-19 virus in a human sample or an environmental sample having one or more viral and bacterial pathogens. Samples processed to obtain total nucleic acids. The nucleic acids are used as a template in a reverse transcription-amplification reaction to obtain cDNA, which is used in a PCR amplification reaction to obtain fluorescent COVID-19 virus specific amplicons. These amplicons are detected by microarray hybridization near the lowest limit of detection. Also provided is a method for detecting in addition to the COVID-19 virus, the presence of respiratory disease-causing pathogens including viruses, bacteria and fungus in a single assay using the above method.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11920188
    Abstract: Provided herein is a method for detecting the presence of clade variants in the COVID-19 virus in a human sample and/or an environmental sample. Samples are processed to obtain total RNA. The RNA is used as a template in a combined reverse transcription and amplification reaction to obtain fluorescent COVID-19 virus amplicons. These amplicons are hybridized on a microarray with nucleic acid probes having sequences that discriminate among the various clade variants. The microarray is imaged to detect the clade variant. Also provided is a method of distinguishing each clade variant from others by generating an intensity distribution profile from the image, which is unique to each of the clade variants.

  • Publication number: 20220364157
    Abstract: Provided herein is a method for detecting the presence of a COVID-19 virus in a human sample or an environmental sample having one or more viruses and bacterial pathogens. Samples are processed to obtain total nucleic acids. A combined reverse transcription and asymmetric PCR amplification reaction is performed to obtain fluorescent labeled COVID-19 virus specific amplicons. The amplicons are detected by microarray hybridization near the lowest limit of detection. Also provided is a method for detecting concurrently with COVID-19 virus, the presence of respiratory disease-causing pathogens including viruses, bacteria and fungus in a single assay using the above method.

  • Publication number: 20050216765
    Abstract: A cryptographic device may include a cryptographic module and a communications module removably coupled thereto. The cryptographic module may include a first housing, a user network interface carried by the first housing, a cryptographic processor carried by the first housing and coupled to the user network interface, and a first connector carried by the first housing and coupled to the cryptographic processor. Furthermore, the communications module may include a second housing, a second connector carried by the second housing and being removably mateable with the first connector of the cryptographic module, and a network communications interface carried by the second housing and coupled to the second connector.
