Next Generation Sequencing Strain Typing Application for Tracking Hospital Acquired Infections
Technology / Product SummaryThis technology is a software package for rapidly analyzing the genomic finger print of a fully sequenced bacterial genome. This software package compares only the genes and avoids the computationally intensive process of full alignment analysis. This means that rather than spend several hours to fully compare two genomes,...

Genetic Marker Detection for Chronic Fatigue
Invention SummaryU-6096 allows for the detection of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis, more commonly known as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS). At present, there are no accurate means of distinguishing this disorder from various conditions such as depression, which can make diagnosis and treatment difficult. Through the use of genetic testing, this methodology...
