First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for detecting biological material from a target cell, the method comprising:
- obtaining a sample suspected to contain a target cell;
conducting an assay on the sample that removes non-target cells from the sample;
extracting biological material from the remaining target and non-target cells; and
analyzing the biological material using a digital counting technique, thereby detecting the biological material from a target cell.
