    Abstract: The methods, compositions and apparatus disclosed herein are of use for nucleic acid sequence determination. The methods involve isolation of one or more nucleic acid template molecules and polymerization of a nascent complementary strand of nucleic acid, using a DNA or RNA polymerase or similar synthetic reagent. As the nascent strand is extended one nucleotide at a time, the disappearance of nucleotide precursors from solution is monitored by Raman spectroscopy or FRET. The nucleic acid sequence of the nascent strand, and the complementary sequence of the template strand, may be determined by tracking the order of incorporation of nucleotide precursors during the polymerization reaction. Certain embodiments concern apparatus comprising a reaction chamber and detection unit, of use in practicing the claimed methods. The methods, compositions and apparatus are of use in sequencing very long nucleic acid templates in a single sequencing reaction.

    Abstract: The present disclosure concerns methods for producing and/or using molecular barcodes. In certain embodiments of the invention, the barcodes comprise polymer backbones that may contain one or more branch structures. Tags may be attached to the backbone and/or branch structures. The barcode may also comprise a probe that can bind to a target, such as proteins, nucleic acids and other biomolecules or aggregates. Different barcodes may be distinguished by the type and location of the tags. In other embodiments, barcodes may be produced by hybridization of one or more tagged oligonucleotides to a template, comprising a container section and a probe section. The tagged oligonucleotides may be designed as modular code sections, to form different barcodes specific for different targets. In alternative embodiments, barcodes may be prepared by polymerization of monomeric units. Bound barcodes may be detected by various imaging modalities, such as, surface plasmon resonance, fluorescent or Raman spectroscopy.

    Abstract: The present methods and apparatus concern the detection and/or identification of target analytes using probe molecules. In various embodiments of the invention, the probes or analytes are attached to one or more cantilevers. Binding of a probe to an analyte results in deflection of the cantilever, detected by a detection unit. A counterbalancing force may be applied to restore the cantilever to its original position. The counterbalancing force may be magnetic, electrical or radiative. The detection unit and the mechanism generating the counterbalancing force may be operably coupled to an information processing and control unit, such as a computer. The computer may regulate a feedback loop that maintains the cantilever in a fixed position by balancing the deflecting force and the counterbalancing force. The concentration of analytes in a sample may be determined from the magnitude of the counterbalancing force required to maintain the cantilever in a fixed position.
