The present invention provides methods for rapidly identifying an RNA viral infection using an isothermal nucleic acid amplification reaction that can be carried out extracted RNA in the context of a crude biological sample.

Compositions and methods for detecting an RNA virus

The present invention features compositions and methods for amplifying a target oligonucleotide in a sample, including detection of the target oligonucleotide in real time.

Compositions and methods for enhancing and/or predicting DNA amplification

This invention relates to the storage on a solid matrix of genetic material, in particular DNA that has been purified prior to the application to the solid matrix. More specifically, the invention relates to a solid matrix for the storage of purified DNA, which matrix has been treated with a solution comprising plant polysaccharide inulin. One advantage of the invention is that an increased amount of DNA can be stored in the solid matrix of the present invention.'

Nucleic acid elution

The present invention features compositions and methods for detecting Huanglongbing (HLB) in citrus trees and insects. In one aspect, the invention provides a method of detecting a Huanglongbing (HLB) infection in a citrus grove involving obtaining an extract from a biological sample derived from a citrus grove, contacting the extract with forward and reverse primers that specifically bind anucleic acid molecule in the presence of a nicking enzyme, dNTPs, and a polymerase under conditions permissive for the isothermal amplification of the nucleic acid molecule; and detecting aamplicon in the extract.

Compositions and methods for detecting huanglongbing

The present invention features rapid and accurate methods for detecting(e.g., in a food product, environmental sample, biological sample or other material).

The field of the present invention pertains to a controlled transfer biological collection device using a dry solid storage and transfer medium and a method for the collection of biological material of interest (genetic or proteinaceous material) in a form suitable for storage and/or subsequent analysis. Specifically, the present invention provides for a sampling device that controls the transfer of the biological sample to the storage medium by holding the storage medium and a moveable sample collection member having an analyte collection surface. The invention further provides for a method not only for storing a biological analyte on this collection device but also for analyzing the stored biological analyte using methods that are suited for automated analyzing systems.
