10/681571
Inventors:
James Dasch - Needham MA, US
M. Gary Riley - Boston MA, US
Paul Burke - Oxnard CA, US
Stephen Zale - Hopkinton MA, US
Assignee:
Alkermes Controlled Therapeutics, Inc. - Cambridge MA

Systems And Methods For Quantitative Analyte Transfer

US Patent:
2010003, Feb 11, 2010
Filed:
Aug 7, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/188119
Inventors:
Malcolm G. Pluskal - Acton MA, US
Tom Miller - East Boston MA, US
James Dasch - Needham MA, US
International Classification:
G01N 27/447, B32B 3/26
US Classification:
204601, 4283166, 204451, 204456, 204605
Abstract:
Systems and methods for enhancing quantitative transfer of analytes to an adsorptive substrate are provided. A preferred embodiment provides an improved transfer system and method that reduces “blow through” of low molecular weight analytes and increases the adsorption of low molecular weight, for example proteins of about 30 kDa or less compared to conventional transfer techniques. It has been discovered that using a secondary porous backing membrane in conjunction with an adsorptive membrane such as nitrocellulose or polvinylidene fluoride increases the efficiency of analyte interaction with the adsorption membrane compared to transfers techniques using the adsorption membrane without the secondary backing membrane. This improvement of quantitative analyte transfer efficiency facilitates a wider range of detection processes, such as direct analysis by MALDI mass spectrometry than in earlier applications of the process without the secondary backing membrane.

Mass Spectrometer Output Analysis Tool For Identification Of Proteins

US Patent:
2010028, Nov 4, 2010
Filed:
May 27, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/473005
Inventors:
Oren Kagan - Chestnut Hill MA, US
James R. Dasch - Needham MA, US
Aaron Sin - St. Louis MO, US
Assignee:
Cell Biosciences - San Leandro CA
International Classification:
G06F 19/00, G01N 33/68
US Classification:
702 19
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for consolidation and visualization of a dataset output from a mass spectrometer. The number of proteins identified in a mass spectrometry experiment may be systematically reduced by identifying and excluding proteins which may not be necessary to explain the observed peptides in a sample. Peptide counts from excluded proteins may be redistributed to non-excluded proteins to preserve total observed peptide counts. The consolidated dataset may be represented as a data structure having a plurality of cells arranged into rows and columns. Visual parameter values may be assigned to various cells in the data structure to emphasize particular features of the data. Data from multiple samples may be arranged in sets of columns in the data structure, and difference scores may be calculated to determine peptide expression differences between the multiples samples. The difference scores may be displayed using textual and/or graphical representations to facilitate data analysis.
