Patent AU-4955799-A (AU)
Title: Microfabricated cell sorter
Inventor: QUAKE STEPHEN
IPC: G01N15/14
Filed: 1999-05-21
Abstract: The invention provides a microfabricated device for sorting cells based on a desired characteristic, for example, reporter-labeled cells can be sorted by the presence or level of reporter on the cells. The device includes a chip having a substrate into which is microfabricated at least one analysis unit. Each analysis unit includes a main channel, having a sample inlet channel, typically at one end, and a detection region along a portion of its length. Adjacent and downstream from the detection region, the main channel has a discrimination region or branch point leading to at least two branch channels. The analysis unit may further include additional inlet channels, detection points, branch points, and branch channels as desired. A stream containing cells is passed through the detection region, such that on average one cell occupies the detection region at a given time. The cells can be sorted into an appropriate branch channel based on the presence or amount of a detectable signal such as an optical signal, with or without stimulation, such as exposure to light in order to promote fluorescence.

Title: Test swab and methods of making and using same
Inventor: STONE MARCIA J
IPC: G01N33/20
Filed: 1990-02-02
Abstract: A swab (10) is impregnated with a test reagent such that a test for a specific substance can be effected by rubbing the impregnated swab over the surface to be tested and then viewing the swab for a reagent reaction. A method for testing for a metal includes impregnating a swab with a reagent, such as, for example, a rhodizonate dye reagent when testing for lead, and rubbing the swab over a surface suspected of containing the metal. If a metal is present in the surface, a reaction with the metal produces an easily detectable color on the swab tip.

Title: Method for identifying an unknown allele
Inventor: ARGUELLO RAFAEL
IPC: C12Q1/6809
Filed: 1996-11-29
Abstract: The invention provides a method for identifying an unknown allele of a polyallelic gene, which method comprises (i) contacting the unknown allele with a panel of probes, each of which recognises a sequence motif that is present in some alleles of the polyallelic gene but not in others; (ii) observing which probes recognise the unknown allele so as to obtain a fingerprint of the unknown allele; and (iii) comparing the fingerprint with fingerprints of known alleles. The use of a panel of probes which each recognises a different motif allows identification of which motifs are present in the unknown allele. The alleles of the polyallelic gene each have a unique combination of motifs and so identification of this combination (or "fingerprint") leads to identification of the unknown allele.
