Abstract:
Provided are methods for biological sample processing and analysis. A method can comprise providing a substrate configured to rotate. The substrate can comprise an array having immobilized thereto a biological analyte. A solution comprising a plurality of probes may be directed, via centrifugal force, across the substrate during rotation of the substrate, to couple at least one of the plurality of probes with the biological analyte. A detector can be configured to detect a signal from the at least one probe coupled to the biological analyte, thereby analyzing the biological analyte.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for processing a biological analyte, comprising:\n (a) providing a substrate comprising an array having immobilized thereto said biological analyte, wherein said substrate is rotatable with respect to a central axis; (b) dispensing a solution comprising a plurality of probes at a first location of said substrate, and directing said solution outwardly across said substrate from said first location to and in contact with said biological analyte at a second location of said substrate during rotation of said substrate, wherein said first location is radially closer to said central axis than said second location, wherein said solution is directed centrifugally along a direction away from said central axis; (c) subjecting said biological analyte to conditions sufficient to conduct a reaction between at least one probe of said plurality of probes and said biological analyte, to couple said at least one probe to said biological analyte; and (d) detecting one or more signals from said at least one probe coupled to said biological analyte, thereby analyzing said biological analyte.
