ALEXANDRIA, Va., Aug. 12 -- United States Patent no. 12,703,880, issued on Aug. 11, was assigned to Xiamen University (Xiamen, China).

"Method for asymmetric amplification of multiple target nucleic acids" was invented by Qiuying Huang (Xiamen, China) and Qingge Li (Xiamen, China).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "Provided is multiplex and asymmetric amplification of nucleic acid molecules. In particular, provided is a method for simultaneous and asymmetric amplification of one or more target nucleic acids in a sample. The method can simultaneously and asymmetrically amplify multiple target nucleic acids existing in a sample, and can simultaneously produce large number of single stranded products...
