  • Patent number: 11847766
    Abstract: A method and device for detecting bright spots on an image. The image is acquired from a field of view where a base extension reaction occurs, multiple nucleic acid molecules with optically detectable labels exist in the field of view where the base extension reaction occurs, and at least some of the nucleic acid molecules appear as bright spots on the image. The method includes preprocessing the image to obtain a preprocessed image; determining a critical value to simplify the preprocessed image to obtain a simplified image, determining a first bright spot detection threshold on the basis of the preprocessed image, and identifying candidate bright spots on the image on the basis of the preprocessed image and the simplified image, including determining a pixel matrix that satisfies at least two of conditions as a candidate bright spot.

  • Publication number: 20210217186
    Abstract: A method and device for image registration, and a computer program product. The method includes performing, based on a reference image, a first registration of an image to be registered, including determining a first offset between predetermined areas on the image and the reference image, and moving all bright spots on the image based on the first offset; performing, based on the reference image, a second registration with respect to the first registered image, including merging the first registered image and the reference image, calculating the offset of all overlapped bright spots in the predetermined area on the merged image to determine a second offset, two or more bright spots distanced by less than a predetermined number of pixels being one overlapped bright spot, and moving, on the basis of the second offset, all bright spots on the first registered image, thus implementing the registration of the image.

  • Publication number: 20210130888
    Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a method, a device and a system for detecting chromosomal aneuploidy. The method comprises: sequencing at least a portion of a nucleic acid in a sample under test to obtain a sequencing result including reads; aligning the reads to a first reference sequence to obtain an alignment result including specific chromosomes to which the reads are mapped; determining, for a first chromosome, the amount of reads mapped to the first chromosome based on the alignment result; and comparing the number of the reads mapped to the first chromosome with the amount of reads in a negative control mapped to the first chromosome to determine the number of the first chromosome. When the method is employed to detect chromosomal aneuploidy, the detection results acquired have relatively high sensitivity and accuracy.

  • Patent number: 10772368
    Abstract: The method comprises of placing the palm side of a glove mold facing up, and raising the fingers portion of glove mold up, in such a way that the glove mold is tilting up at 15°-45° in relative to horizontal position. The first pouring process is carried out by pouring silica gel liquid on the fingers portion of glove mold. Then adjust the glove mold to horizontal position, and rotate the glove mold by using its length as axis. Continue pouring silica gel liquid on the glove mold surface to carry out second pouring process. Let the silica gel liquid to be coated on the whole glove mold surface forming a semi-finished glove. Upon completion, let the glove mold to go through a dripping procedure for dripping treatment. After the dripping treatment, carry out vulcanization and cooling to obtain the corresponding silica gel glove.

  • Patent number: 10467749
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method and a system for processing an image. The method includes: an image pre-processing step, including analyzing an image input to be processed so as to obtain a first image; and a spot detecting step, including analyzing the first image so as to compute a spot determining threshold; analyzing the first image so as to acquire a candidate pixel spot, and judging whether the candidate pixel spot is the spot according to the spot determining threshold; computing a sub-pixel center coordinate of the spot and an intensity value of the sub-pixel center coordinate if yes; and discarding the candidate pixel spot if no. According to the method, the image is denoised in the image pre-processing step, such that a calculation in the spot detecting step may be reduced. In addition, the accuracy of determining the image spot may be improved.
