Nanoelectronic-Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay System And Method

View page
US Patent:
20100184104, Jul 22, 2010
Filed:
Aug 4, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/535396
Inventors:
Tarek M. FAHMY - New Haven CT, US
Eric D. Stern - New Haven CT, US
Mark A. Reed - Monroe CT, US
Aleksandar Vacic - New Haven CT, US
International Classification:
G01N 33/53
C12M 1/00
US Classification:
435 792, 4352871, 4352872
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a device and method for determining the presence of a specific compound in solution. The device includes a nanosensor having an electrically conducting pathway between at least a first and second contact. The device also includes a first receptor, suitable for binding a specific compound in the solution, attached to the nanosensor, and a second receptor also suitable for binding the specific compound while the specific compound is bound to the first receptor. The second receptor is attached to an enzyme added to the solution. When the solution having the second receptor is added to the device, and a second compound that is a substrate for the enzyme is subsequently added to the solution, a measured difference in an electrical property in the device before and after the application of the second compound is indicative of the presence of the specific compound in the solution.

Rapid Methods For Determining Microorganism Growth In Samples Of Human Origin

US Patent:
20200347432, Nov 5, 2020
Filed:
Apr 30, 2020
Appl. No.:
16/863603
Inventors:

G01N 15/14
Abstract:
Continuous monitoring of blood cultures using pH- (or CO—) based detection platforms is the current clinical gold standard. Despite the ubiquity of these systems in state-of-the-art clinical microbiology laboratories, they offer slow times-to-result (TTR) because microorganism detection typically requires >10colony forming units (CFU) to be present whereas only 1-1000 CFU are typically present in septic patient blood samples. These TTRs are further lengthened for samples collected from spoke sites in consolidated hub-and-spoke laboratory models, an increasingly common model for integrated hospital networks and reference laboratories, because sample transport time, typically >4 hours, is lost. Here we introduce new methods that allow microorganisms to be detected at

System, Method And Interface For Parallel Processing Of Antimicrobial Susceptibility Tests Using Different Samples

View page
US Patent:
20190323057, Oct 24, 2019
Filed:
Mar 27, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/367081
Inventors:
- Charlestown MA, US
Kelly Flentie - Charlestown MA, US
Aleksandar Vacic - Charlestown MA, US
International Classification:
C12Q 1/18
B01L 3/00
G01N 33/569
B01L 3/02
G01N 35/00
Abstract:
An improved system, method and interface for automated rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) is disclosed which includes, in one aspect, a carrier population station comprising a workstation having a graphic user interface (GUI). The GUI accepts information from a lab technologist, including information related to a scope of testing to be performed on a microorganism containing sample. The GUI controls intelligent assignment of microorganism containing samples to test panels in a manner that maximize utilization of the test carrier by grouping together samples of similar tests scopes and advantageously testing those samples using one multiplexed test panel. Customizing workflow in accordance with test scope to facilitate parallel processing of multiple samples advantageously reduces laboratory waste, decreases test latencies, increases AST system throughput and efficiency, and thus lowers the costs to the AST lab.
