Abstract:
Techniques for forming a nanopore in a lipid bilayer are described herein. In one example, an agitation stimulus level such as an electrical agitation stimulus is applied to a lipid bilayer wherein the agitation stimulus level tends to facilitate the formation of nanopores in the lipid bilayer. In some embodiments, a change in an electrical property of the lipid bilayer resulting from the formation of the nanopore in the lipid bilayer is detected, and a nanopore has formed in the lipid bilayer is determined based on the detected change in the lipid bilayer electrical property.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of identifying a base of a nucleic acid molecule, comprising:\n recording a first electrical measurement indicative of the base of the molecule as a strand of the molecule moves through a nanopore under an applied electrical stimulus; recording a second electrical measurement indicative of the base of the molecule wherein the second electrical measurement is a repeat electrical measurement; and identifying the base based on the first electrical measurement wherein the repeat measurement is used to increase confidence in the identification.
