  • DUAL-RECOGNITION IMMUNOASSAY FOR THE DETECTION OF ANTIBODIES
    Publication number: 20100196878
    Abstract: The invention relates to a dual-recognition immunoassay for the detection of antibodies specific to a target antigen in a sample which comprises contacting said target antigen with a sample suspected of containing said antibodies specific to said target antigen under conditions allowing the formation of an antigen-antibody complex; adding a conjugate comprising said target antigen and a marker under conditions allowing the formation of an antigen-antibody-antigen/marker complex; and detecting said antigen-antibody-antigen/marker complex. The immunoassay can be used, among other applications, in the diagnosis of infections caused by pathogenic organisms with high sensitivity and specificity.

  • Icosahedral superstructure of VP2 of infectious bursitis virus (IBDV) and the application thereof
    Patent number: 7132105
    Abstract: The IBDV VP2 icosahedral superstructures are made up of 12 empty VP2 dodecahedral capsids, lacking genetic material. They have a size of approximately 60–68 nm in diameter and contain 720 IBDV VP2 subunits. These VP2 icosahedral superstructures can be used for vaccinal and diagnostic purposes.

  • Method and kit using recombinant proteins in fusion of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus and for diagnosis
    Patent number: 6592870
    Abstract: The recombinant fusion proteins comprise the protein of the nucleocapsid of the porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) obtained both from a European isolate of PRRSV as well as from an American isolate, fused to a sequence of amino acids derived from the system chosen for the expression of said recombinant fusion protein, either directly or by means of a binding area formed by a small number of amino acids. These recombinant fusion proteins are suited for their use in the diagnosis of PRRSV.
