Prospective Grant of Exclusive
License: System and Methods for
Detecting and Characterizing
Macromolecular Interactions in
Solution
National Institutes of Health,
Public Health Service, HHS.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
Notice.
SUMMARY: This is notice, in accordance
with 35 U.S.C. 209(c)(1) and 37 CFR
404.7(a)(1)(i), that the National
Institutes of Health (NIH), Department
of Health and Human Services, is
contemplating the grant of an exclusive
license to practice the inventions
embodied in PCT (application number
pending) filed July 28, 2006 from U.S.
provisional application 60/703,814 (E–
167–2005/0–US–01), entitled ‘‘System
and Methods for Detecting and
Characterizing Macromolecular
Interactions in Solution’’ (Inventors:
Drs. Allen Minton and Arun Attri) to
Wyatt Technology Corporation
(hereafter Wyatt), having a place of
business in Goleta, California. The
patent rights in these inventions have
been assigned to the United States of
America.

Frm 00051
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Only written comments and/or
application for a license, which are
received by the NIH Office of
Technology Transfer on or before
October 27, 2006 will be considered.
ADDRESSES: Requests for a copy of the
patent application, inquiries, comments
and other materials relating to the
contemplated license should be directed
to: Chekesha Clingman, Ph.D., Office of
Technology Transfer, National Institutes
of Health, 6011 Executive Boulevard,
Suite 325, Rockville, MD 20852–3804; email: clingmac@mail.nih.gov; telephone:
(301) 435–5018; facsimile: (301) 402–
0220.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
present invention relates to systems and
methods for sensitive detection and
characterization of macromolecular
interactions in homogenous or
heterogeneous solutions of
macromolecules, such as proteins, DNA,
RNA, biopolymers, organic and
inorganic polymers, macromolecular
pharmaceutical compounds and others.
The methods employed by this system
do not require the need for labeling or
chemical modification of any test
substance, and it is more rapid than any
conventional methods. The system
includes a dispenser to dispense a
solution containing the macromolecule,
and one or more detectors to measure a
light scattering and concentration
associated with the macromolecule in
solution. For instance, the first detector
can be a light scattering detector (such
as a static light-scattering detector). The
second detector (such as a UV–Vis
detector) can be added in to measure
light absorbance and hence
concentration. The detectors can be
arranged in parallel, to receive identical
flow of solution from the dispenser, so
that at any given time point, both
detectors collect data on flow of
identical concentrations.
The prospective exclusive license will
be royalty bearing and will comply with
the terms and conditions of 35 U.S.C.
209 and 37 CFR 404.7. The prospective
exclusive license may be granted unless,
within 60 days from the date of this
published Notice, NIH receives written
evidence and argument that establishes
that the grant of the license would not
be consistent with the requirements of
35 U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR 404.7.
The field of use may be limited to the
development of a system and method
for detecting and characterizing
macromolecular interactions in
solution.
Properly filed competing applications
for a license filed in response to this
notice will be treated as objections to
the contemplated license. Comments
