Abstract: The present invention provides a method of stratifying a patient suffering from CKD into one of stages 1-3 of CKD, comprising determining the level of the biomarkers FABP1, γ-GT, AST, creatinine and cystatin C in a sample obtained from the patient and comparing the level of FABP1 in the sample to a control value and the levels of γ-GT, AST, creatinine and cystatin C in the sample to a range of control values for each biomarker, wherein an increased level of FABP1 compared to the control value and levels of γ-GT, AST, creatinine and cystatin C within the range of control values for each biomarker indicate that the patient suffers from stage 1 CKD or wherein an increased level of FABP1 compared to the control value, levels of γ-GT and AST within the range of control values for each biomarker, and increased levels of creatinine and cystatin C compared to an upper threshold of the control range for these biomarkers indicate that the patient suffers from stage 2 or stage 3 CKD.

Abstract: A method for imaging molecules contained in an array of discrete reaction sites on the surface of a solid support comprises: (i) imaging the array and detecting a first molecule located on the solid support at a known position with respect to the array; (ii) by reference to the first molecule, aligning inspection windows in registration with the discrete reaction sites; and (iii) determining the amount of detectable signal in each window. The method is used to locate the reaction sites accurately on the array, and to correct for any misalignments.

Abstract: The present invention provides a chemiluminescence detector, which comprises an image capture device sensitive to chemiluminescence located within a container. The container has an array of apertures located in a field of view of the image capture device, and each aperture is defined by a through-bore in a wall of the container. The exterior of the container is engagable with a plurality of sample holders, each sample holder being in alignment with a respective aperture when engaged with the exterior of the container. The passage of light into the container through each aperture is restrictable by a closure device, passage of light into the container through the apertures is thereby controllable.

Abstract: There is provided a cartridge sealing apparatus (1) comprising a sealing head (10) having a sealing surface (12), the sealing head being adapted in use to hold a sealing member (70) against a surface of a cartridge (100) by application of pressure to the sealing member at the sealing surface across a portion of the sealing member, a bonding layer being present between the sealing member and the cartridge thereby causing the sealing member (70) to seal the cartridge when held against the surface of the cartridge; and a cutting edge (20) arranged around the sealing head (10). The cutting edge is configured to move when the sealing member is held against the surface of the cartridge by the sealing head, from an unextended position, in which the cutting edge is located adjacent the sealing head, to an extended position, in which the cutting edge is adapted to cut the sealing member.

Abstract: There is provided a method of classifying a biological status of an individual. The method comprising: obtaining a biological sample from a patient; obtaining health-related information from the patient, said information including patient gender; analysing the sample to identify a quantity of each of 2 or more endogenous analytes in the sample; comparing the analyte quantities to reference data from healthy individuals to classify the patient as healthy, pre-diseased, at risk of disease or diseased for at least one health-related condition. The reference data includes data derived from a group of biological samples of individuals having the same gender as the patient and not having a need for medical treatment for a disease or illness, each biological sample of the group of biological samples having been analysed by the same process as used to analyse the patient sample, the process being monitored to maintain a predetermined level of consistency.

Abstract: The invention describes epistatic interactions between single nucleotide polymorphisms on genes associated with blood pressure and provides an application for their use in a method to determine an individual's susceptibility to hypertension and hence whether anti-hypertensive treatment will be beneficial for said individual. In addition gene expression levels are also linked to blood pressure and may also be used to determine susceptibility to hypertension.
