Rosenstein: SMS optical - consider the Nyquist bandwith #NGS12
9:20am August 15th 2012 via HootSuite
Rosenstein: Fluors: 2500 photons/sec QD's: 500k photons/sec. Brightness = limiting factor. #NGS12
9:19am August 15th 2012 via HootSuite
Rosenstein: SMS = discrete, ensemble is an aggregate number. Thus SMS continuous quantities = discrete. Static quants = dynamic. #NGS12
Rosenstein: "Photons are convenient b/c they are clean." But inefficient due to signal. Transducers, PMTs etc. illustrated. #NGS12
9:17am August 15th 2012 via HootSuite
Rosenstein: Optical - 1 base/hr. Ion Torrent - 1 base/min. SM Optical - 1 base / sec. Electronic SMS - in development. #NGS12
9:15am August 15th 2012 via HootSuite
Rosenstein: Bases per second x parallel. Ensemble vs. SM - optical = thousands x 1 base / sec. #NGS12

Drndic: A&A- Solid-state pores can't get down to 1.5nm (yet) to discriminate sizes. #NGS12
9:09am August 15th 2012 via HootSuite
Drndic: Q&A- non-canonical bases, dsDNA or ssDNA, different sizes = different signals, protein pores it works, not solid state yet. #NGS
Drndic: Q&A- everything is done in high-salt, research for the electronics industry doesn't apply there. 'Things go crazy.' #NGS12
9:07am August 15th 2012 via HootSuite
Drndic: 1 base 0.1s - 'slow'. Much faster, need to improve the electronics. Rosenstein Nature Methods 2012 (up later). #NGS12

Drndic: Wafer has graphene sheet on it, diced. Can control # of layers of the sheets. Lines, holes. SiNx hole = 20nm, Graphene = 3nm. #NGS12

Drndic: Video of graphene growth - a deposition layer on a polymer layer, otherwise invisible. #NGS12
8:54am August 15th 2012 via HootSuite
Drndic: One base is 0.3nm - so atomically-thin substrate can detect with better resolution. pore = 3-10nm diameter. #NGS12
Drndic: 15min. genome: 1 base in 100ns, 10^9 bases = 1000 sec. #NGS12
8:53am August 15th 2012 via HootSuite
Drndic: Able to discriminate between hmC, C and mC, occupies larger volume and create larger amplitude signals. #NGS12
8:52am August 15th 2012 via HootSuite
Drndic: Working with NEB - counting microRNA, miRNA122a from rat liver, refer to Nature Nanotech. 2010. #NGS12
8:51am August 15th 2012 via HootSuite
Drndic: Shows signals of 25bp DNA, 22bp RNA, tRNA, all with different signals. 1-100molecules / sec rates, can tune parameters #NGS12
