  • Flexible ablator for thermal protection
    Patent number: 10752386
    Abstract: Methods for producing a flexible, fibrous ablator thermal protection material, for use in association with a space vehicle that passes through an atmosphere in which severe heating is experienced. A phenolic resin and/or a silicone resin can be used. The elastic modulus of the resulting material is low, in a preferred range of about 200-5000 kPa, and can be controlled by choice of a curing temperature and/or a time interval length for curing.

  • Nonenzymatic catalytic signal amplification for nucleic acid hybridization assays
    Patent number: 7005265
    Abstract: Devices, methods, and kits for amplifying the signal from hybridization reactions between nucleic acid probes and their cognate targets are presented. The devices provide partially-duplexed, immobilized probe complexes, spatially separate from and separately addressable from immobilized docking strands. Cognate target acts catalytically to transfer probe from the site of probe complex immobilization to the site of immobilized docking strand, generating a detectable signal. The methods and kits of the present invention may be used to identify the presence of cognate target in a fluid sample.

  • Signal amplifying targeted reporters for biological and chemical sensor applications
    Publication number: 20030198960
    Abstract: The present invention provides targeted dendrimeric reporter molecules that provide amplified signals at electrochemical sensors, and methods of synthesis and methods of use thereof. The reporter molecules comprise a targeting moiety and at least one dendritic signal amplifier; the dendritic amplifier comprises a plurality of dendritic branches and a plurality of indicator moieties, typically pendant therefrom. The targeting moiety serves to concentrate the dendritic amplifier at a selected target, where the plural indicator provide increased signals.
