  • Anuran cross-species molecular sensors
    Patent number: 9944994
    Abstract: Described herein are DNA primer sequences designed for the determination of gene or transcript information from Anuran species, and which may be used in studies for developmental and/or toxicity testing and for environmental toxicology or ecological assessment. Also described herein is a rapid, sensitive, high-throughput assay useful for supporting potential risk assessment across vertebrate clades, and that is also useful for evaluation of complex contaminant mixtures.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 11, 2016
    Date of Patent: April 17, 2018
    Assignee: Arizona Board of Regents on Behalf of Northern Arizona University
