Patent number: 11833524Abstract: There is disclosed a combinatory separation system comprising: a first compartment adapted to handle a mixture with magnetic beads having an affinity for molecules, comprising a magnet to attract the beads, a second compartment adapted to receive said magnetic beads transferred thereto with a flow of liquid, and said at least one second compartment is adapted to elute said at least one type of molecules to be separated from said magnetic beads, said at least one second compartment has an outlet comprising means for retaining said magnetic beads in the at least one second compartment. Advantages include that the process becomes simpler quicker and thereby less expensive, since the method is able to remove cells and particles, separate molecules and perform virus inactivation in fewer steps compared to the prior art. Further the method is able to provide a more concentrated end product.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2018Date of Patent: December 5, 2023Assignee: LAB-ON-A-BEAD ABInventors: Sven Oscarsson, Per-Olof Eriksson, Kristofer Eriksson

Patent number: 8679807Abstract: There is provided a method for covalent immobilization of at least one molecule comprising at least one amino group, said method comprising the sequential steps of: a) providing a surface comprising —SH groups, b) oxidizing the surface comprising —SH groups using redox reactions in the presence of noble metal ions, and c) contacting the surface with at least one molecule comprising at least one amino group to obtain a covalent binding of the at least one molecule to the surface, wherein said at least one amino group is involved in obtaining said covalent bond. The immobilized molecules are immobilized via stable covalent bonds. The method is more versatile since it can be performed as a one step method. All reaction steps are performed in aqueous solution. All steps can be performed at room temperature. The chemicals used are less expensive and less toxic compared to the prior art.Type: GrantFiled: July 27, 2011Date of Patent: March 25, 2014Assignee: Lab-On-A-BeadInventors: Sven Oscarsson, Kristofer Eriksson, Leif Nyholm

Publication number: 20030138801Abstract: The present invention relates to the positioning of nanoparticles on surfaces, and in particular to a method for first positioning nucleic acid polymers onto surface defects on a surface in order to utilise the principle of base pairing for achieving a site specific organisation of particles and macromolecules. The inventive method comprises the positioning of corresponding base pairs in the form of primers on the particles or macromolecules to be positioned, and a high resolution, preferably a resolution of 1-50 nm can be achieved.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 25, 2002Publication date: July 24, 2003Inventors: Sven Oscarsson, Arjan Quist, Carl Pahlsson

Patent number: 5942463Abstract: An adsorbent preferably for proteins and peptides, but also for e.g. certain metals, with hydrophilic ligands covalently bonded to a polymer net around a carrier, and having the general structure: --X--S--(CH.sub.2).sub.n --R, wherein X is a spacer arm, n is an integer 1 or 2, and R is a .pi.-electron-rich ring system with at least one nitrogen atom in the ring structure. Thanks to its resistance to 1M caustic, a concentration which eliminates bacteria, viruses and pyrogens, the adsorbent can be reused for medical purposes in large scale work.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 1996Date of Patent: August 24, 1999Inventors: Sven Oscarsson, Jerker Porath
