  • METHOD FOR DETECTION OF RNA OR DNA FROM BOLOGICAL SAMPLES
    Publication number: 20230366043
    Abstract: A method of detection of nucleic acids from a biological sample without isolation or purification of the nucleic acids is described. The method may include direct detection of nucleic acids from humans, animals, viruses or bacteria, including DNA and RNA from a biological sample without isolating or purifying nucleic acids prior to analysis. Biological samples may be blood, urine, semen, tissue, swabs (nasal, buccal, ocular, vaginal or anal).

  • Portable nucleic acid extraction apparatus and method of using the same
    Patent number: 11667908
    Abstract: A portable nucleic acid extraction kit includes a portable nucleic acid extraction apparatus, at least one lysis buffer, at least one binding buffer, at least one washing buffer, at least one elution buffer, and at least three kit sample tubes. The portable nucleic acid extraction apparatus includes a handle, a rod, a tip, and may include a nucleic acid binding medium. The method of using the portable nucleic acid extraction apparatus includes, treating a biological sample having a nucleic acid, binding the nucleic acid in the treated biological sample to the tip of the portable nucleic acid extraction apparatus, incubating the tip of the portable nucleic acid extraction apparatus bound with the nucleic acid, washing the tip of the portable nucleic acid apparatus bound with the nucleic acid, eluting the bound nucleic acid, and analyzing the eluted nucleic acid.
