Patent attributes
The present disclosure provides polynucleotide conjugates, methods, and assay systems for use in detecting the presence, absence, and/or amount of an analyte in a sample. Various polynucleotide conjugates, conjugate pairs, sets, libraries, and assay systems comprising the same are disclosed. In particular, methods and assay systems for antibody detection and analysis are provided. For example, assays capable of high levels of multiplexing are used for antibody detection and analysis in a biological sample, e.g., Lyme disease patient samples. The presently disclosed polynucleotide conjugates, methods, and assay systems can be used to provide sensitive and reliable diagnosis, even at early stages of a disease or condition. Use for monitoring disease progression and prognosis is also disclosed.
