An array-based system of assembled DNA for computer data storage is described. An array surface contains immobilized seed DNA initially having with blunt (or blocked) ends with a photocleavable optical linker at a forward end thereof holding the last few base pairs. A light source is light is applied to break the linker, generating a sticky end which allows for hybridization. Data-bearing DNA cassettes are introduced to the array and attach via their sticky ends to the unblock sites on the array surface. The attachment is made permanent via ligase.

Optical methods and systems for DNA assembly for computer data storage

The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for nucleic acid isolation from cellular samples. In particular, the present disclosure provides systems and methods for lysing cells and recovering nucleic acids.

Systems and methods for isolating nucleic acids from cellular samples

A chemical agent detector with a a lesser demand sensor, a greater demand sensor, an inlet; and a manifold; and methods associated therewith. The manifold is positioned between the inlet and the sensors, and includes a first intake associated with the lesser demand sensor, a second intake associated with a greater demand sensor, and at least one restrictor. The first intake is placed closer to the inlet than the second intake, and the second intake is isolated from the inlet by at least one restrictor within the manifold. The intakes and restrictor are sized and positioned such that the ratio between: the conductance of the path from the inlet to the greater demand sensor to the conductance of the path between the sensors effectively isolates the lesser demand sensor from the effects of the greater demand sensor.
