The present invention relates to a method for determining or predicting the response of a patient diagnosed with locally advanced rectal cancer to chemoradiotherapy. The present invention also aims to provide methods and devices for predicting the response of patients diagnosed with rectal cancer to specific medicaments, radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy. More specifically, the present invention provides methods which measure kinase activity by studying phosphorylation levels and profiles in samples of said patients.

Method for predicting the response of locally advanced rectal cancer to chemoradiotherapy

The present invention relates to methods for monitoring in a high through-put fashion a multitude of molecular reaction processes, using a substrate, said substrate comprising a plurality of micro-channels, wherein each micro-channel has inlet and outlet open ends on opposing sides of said substrate, and wherein said micro-channels comprise at least one first reaction component, comprising the steps of: (a) contacting said micro-channels of said solid substrate with a sample, said contacting being via said inlet open ends, wherein said sample comprises an analyte, under conditions that allow said analyte to be specifically retained within said micro-channels by said first reaction component; (b) optionally removing excess of sample via said outlet open ends; (c) contacting the retained analyte with at least one second reaction component, said second reaction component being different from said first reaction component as defined in step (a), under conditions that allow a molecular reaction to take place, said reaction producing a signal; (d) detecting said signal and reading-out reaction results;(e) removing second reaction components via said outlet open ends; (f) repeating steps (c) to (e) at least once, wherein said at least one second reaction component as defined in (c) may be changed in composition; and, final detecting and reading-out of reaction results. The present invention also relates to the uses thereof as well as to microarrays and kits for performing said methods of the invention.

Method for high-throughput integrated chemical and biochemical reactions

Disclosed is a device useful for performing an assay comprising a substrate having interconnecting channels that open out onto a surface for sample application, the channels being provided in at least one cross-sectional area with a first binding substance capable of binding a particular analyte, the substrate being an electrochemically manufactured metal oxide membrane and containing the first binding substance within the through-going channels. Similar devices are also useful for chemical synthesis. Assay and chemical synthesis methods are also disclosed, as are kits for performing the assays or chemical syntheses.

Device for performing an assay, a method for manufacturing said device, and use of a membrane in the manufacture of said device

The invention concerns peptides which react immunochemically with antibodies directed against NANBH. A method for the detection of NANBH or anti-NANBH in a test fluid, an immunochemical reagent and a testkit to be used when applying said detection methods belong to the invention.
