Christina R. Cuesico has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Peptides, devices, and methods for the detection of anaplasma antibodies
    Patent number: 9702883
    Abstract: The invention provides populations of isolated peptides useful for the detection of antibodies that bind to Anaplasma antigens. The peptide populations comprise peptides derived from immunogenic fragments of the Anaplasma Outer Membrane Protein proteins. The invention also provides devices, methods, and kits comprising the populations of isolated peptides useful for the detection of antibodies that bind to Anaplasma antigens and the diagnosis of anaplasmosis. Methods of identifying the particular Anaplasma species infecting a subject using the peptide populations of the invention are also disclosed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 16, 2015
    Date of Patent: July 11, 2017
    Assignee: ABAXIS, INC.
    Inventors: Rajesh K. Mehra, Kenneth P. Aron, Dennis M. Bleile, Andrew P. Rogers, Timothy P. Forsyth, Jeremy D. Walker, Christina R. Cuesico
