Filed:

Nov 6, 2012

Appl. No.:

13/669579

Inventors:

Dennis G. Hooper - Lewisville TX, US

Assignee:

Medical Service Consultation International, LLC - Carrollton TX

International Classification:

C12Q 1/00
C12Q 1/02
C12Q 1/04
C12Q 1/68

US Classification:

435 615, 435 4, 435 61, 435 611, 435 612, 435 29, 435 34

Abstract:

The invention relates to a method of identifying a specific fungal species in patient tissue or body fluid. The method comprises the steps of extracting and recovering DNA of the fungal species from the patient tissue or body fluid, amplifying the DNA, hybridizing a probe to the DNA to specifically identify the fungal species, and specifically identifying the fungal species. The invention also relates to a method of identifying a mycotoxin in patient tissue or body fluid. The method comprises the steps of extracting and recovering the mycotoxin from the patient tissue or body fluid, contacting the mycotoxin with an antibody directed against the mycotoxin, and identifying the myocotoxin. Both of these methods can be used to determine if a patient is at risk for or has developed a disease state related to a fungal infection, and to develop an effective treatment regimen for the patient.

C07H 21/00

US Classification:

435 6, 435 71, 436 86, 536 231

Abstract:

The invention relates to a method of identifying a specific yeast species in patient tissue or body fluid. The method comprises the steps of extracting and recovering DNA of the yeast species from the patient tissue or body fluid, amplifying the DNA, hybridizing a probe to the DNA to specifically identify the yeast species, and specifically identifying the yeast species. The invention also relates to a method of identifying a yeast mycotoxin in patient tissue or body fluid. The method comprises the steps of extracting and recovering the yeast mycotoxin from the patient tissue or body fluid, contacting the yeast mycotoxin with an antibody directed against the yeast mycotoxin, and identifying the yeast myocotoxin. Both of these methods can be used to determine if a patient is at risk for or has developed a disease state related to a yeast infection, and to develop an effective treatment regimen for the patient.

Appl. No.:

12/901247

Inventors:

Dennis G. Hooper - Lewisville TX, US

International Classification:

C12Q 1/68
C07H 21/04

US Classification:

435 6, 536 2432, 536 2433

Abstract:

The invention relates to methods and compositions for identifying specific bacterial species, which are sulfur and iron oxidizers and/or reducers, from wall board (e.g., dry wall) and/or a patient tissue or body fluid. The method comprises the steps of extracting and recovering DNA of the bacterial species from the wall board and/or the patient tissue or body fluid, amplifying the DNA, hybridizing a probe to the DNA to specifically identify the bacterial species, and specifically identifying the bacterial species. Kits and nucleic acids for use in the methods are also provided. Methods for eliminating the sulfur and iron oxidizing and/or reducing bacteria from wall board using a zeolite are also provided.
