Jitender P. Dubey 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).

  • oocyst protein
    Patent number: 7741063
    Abstract: Recombinant proteins have been developed for the detection of Toxoplasma gondii oocyst proteins for example in biological fluids. Isolated DNA sequences which encode these proteins have also been developed. The DNA sequences may be inserted into recombinant DNA molecules such as cloning vectors or expression vectors for the transformation of cells and the production of the proteins.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 6, 2009
    Date of Patent: June 22, 2010
    Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of Agriculture
    Inventors: Dolores Hill, Dante S Zarlenga, Cathleen Coss, Jitender P Dubey

  • Polymerase chain reaction assay for the detection of Toxoplasma gondii
    Patent number: 6770440
    Abstract: Oligonucleotide primer sequences have been designed which are capable of uniquely amplifying DNA from Toxoplasma gondii when utilized in a polymerase chain reaction assay. In addition, a probe effective for detection of amplification products, particularly in a fluorogenic real time assay system has also been designed. The primers and probe are derived from the internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1) region of the T. gondii 18S rRNA gene.

  • Recombinant antigens useful for the serodiagnosis of neosporosis
    Patent number: 6476192
    Abstract: Antigens for the detection of antibodies to Neospora parasites for the diagnosis of neosporosis have been identified. Recombinant antigens may be produced by expression of DNA sequences derived from Neospora caninum. Both antigens are capable of detecting antibody responses in animals experimentally inoculated with N. caninum but show no evidence of cross-reactivity with serum from animals inoculated with closely related parasites such as Toxoplasma gondii or Sarcocystis species.

  • Sarcocystis neuronadiagnostic primer and its use in methods of equine protozoal myeloencephalitis diagnosis
    Patent number: 6110665
    Abstract: An amplification primer and probe which can be used in an in vitro diagnostic test for the presence of S. neurona in equine blood or cerebrospinal fluid. Sarcocystis neurona is responsible for the equine condition of protozoal myelitis. The amplification primer is seventeen nucleotides in length and complementary to a unique section of the small ribosomal subunit of Sarcocystis neurona. The primer encompasses nucleotide positions 1470-1487 of the small ribosomal subunit of S. neurona. The primer has the sequence 5' CCATTCCGGACGCGGGT SEQ ID NO:1.
