  • Publication number: 20230126241
    Abstract: Methods and compositions are described for multi-stage primer extension reactions such as multiplex polymerase chain reactions (PCR) and reverse transcriptase PCR. Primer extension stages are performed in a closed vessel without opening the vessel between stages. The multi-stage primer extension methods and compositions utilize earlier stage primers in an earlier stage and later stage primers in a later stage, wherein the later stage primers are blocked from extension during the earlier stage. The blocked primers of the present technology comprise photocleavable blocking groups and are substantially inactive until the blocking group is cleaved by exposure to ultraviolet light. The blocked primers can be activated by ultraviolet light without opening the vessel.

  • Publication number: 20210181191
    Abstract: Provided herein are methods of using photocleavable labels for multiplex and serial antigen detection. The methods comprise detecting the presence of photocleavable labels, which are conjugated through functional linkers to antigen-binding complexes, which in turn non-covalently bind to antigens. The presence of a photocleavable label is indicative of the presence of an antigen specifically or selectively bound by an antigen-binding complex. Also provided are apparatuses for using photocleavable labels for multiplex and serial antigen detection.

  • Patent number: 11001886
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to 3?-OH unblocked nucleotides and nucleosides labeled and unlabeled with 5-methoxy-substituted nitrobenzyl-based photocleavable terminating groups for use in methods and systems related to DNA and RNA sequencing and analysis. These compounds may be used as reversible terminators as they exhibit fast nucleotide incorporation kinetics, single-base termination, high nucleotide selectivity, and rapid terminating group cleavage that results in a naturally occurring nucleotide.

  • Patent number: 10528781
    Abstract: The invention provides a detection method and system for characteristic patterns of Han Xin codes. The detection method comprises the steps: binarizing a received two-dimensional code image, scanning the two-dimensional code image line-by-line and column-by-column so as to search out the four vertexes of a Han Xin code region, connecting every two vertexes of the four vertexes so as to form the four boundaries and two diagonal lines of the Han Xin code region, searching out four characteristic line segments starting from the vertexes and having the continuous binarization values 1, 0, 1, 0, 1 from the two diagonal lines and also searching out the end points of the characteristic line segments, and calculating the boundaries and the data bit width of position detection patterns of the Han Xin code according to the start points and the end points of the characteristic line segments.
