Abstract:
A nanoparticle-nucleic acid complex and a method of linearizing a target nucleic acid by using the nanoparticle-nucleic acid complex are disclosed. By using the nanoparticle-nucleic acid complex and the method, nucleotide sequence analysis and mapping of a target nucleic acid may be efficiently performed.
Abstract:
A nano particle tracking device includes a channel structure. The channel structure of the nano particle tracking device includes a pair of microchannels in which a specimen including nano particles is accommodated and which face each other, at least one nano channel which is between the pair of microchannels, which connects the pair of microchannels to each other and through which the nano particles in the specimen are moved, and a nano grating below the nano channel and crossing the nano channel perpendicularly.
Abstract:
A bio material receiving device includes a thin film transistor (“TFT”) including a drain electrode, and a nano well accommodating a bio material. The drain electrode includes the nano well. The TFT may be a bottom gate TFT or a top gate TFT. A nano well array may include a plurality of bio material receiving devices. In a method of operating the bio material receiving device, each of the bio material receiving devices may be individually selected in the nano well array. When the bio material is accommodated in the selected bio material receiving device, a voltage is applied so that another bio material is not accommodated.
Abstract:
A fluid receiving chamber including a fluid inlet hole through which a fluid flows from outside, an inner space which contains the fluid, a fluid supply hole through which the fluid flows from the fluid inlet hole to the inner space, and a fluid outlet hole through which the fluid contained in the inner space is discharged to the outside, where the fluid supply hole is disposed above the fluid outlet hole, and the fluid is supplied to the inner space through the fluid supply hole by gravity.
Abstract:
A fluid controlling apparatus including at least one sample chamber for holding a fluid containing target materials; a cleaning chamber for holding a cleaning solution; a first multi-port connected to the at least one sample chamber through a first channel and connected to the cleaning chamber through a second channel; a filter portion, connected to the first multi-port through a third channel, for filtering the target materials; and a first pump, connected to the filter portion, for applying a pressure; and a method of controlling a fluid using the fluid controlling apparatus, which comprises passing the fluid containing the target materials from the at least one sample chamber to the filter portion; and cleaning a path of the fluid by passing the cleaning solution through the path.
Abstract:
A filter unit for separating target materials from microparticles using an eluent includes: an inlet; a separator unit which separates the target materials from the microparticles using the eluent; an outlet; and a filter which is interposed between the outlet and the separator unit and filters the microparticles. A volume of the separator unit is less than a volume of the eluent provided to the separator unit.
