  • Patent number: 5814320
    Abstract: The invention is concerned with a protein having the immunological properties of Eimeria tenella which is reactive with a monoclonal antibody E. TEN 11P-2 raised against E. tenella sporozoites.The invention also relates to polypeptide fragments of this protein which can be used for immunization against E. tenella. These proteins and polypeptides can be prepared by isolation from E. tenella, by chemical synthesis or by recombinant DNA methods using the polynucleotides described herein or related sequences.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 7, 1995
    Date of Patent: September 29, 1998
    Assignee: Akzo Nobel N.V.
    Inventors: Lorraine Elizabeth Clarke, Fiona Margaret Tomley, Rein Dijkema, Arno Vermeulen
  • Patent number: 5783197
    Abstract: The present invention is concerned with a polypeptide of Eimeria which can be used for the immunization of poultry against coccidiosis. Furthermore, the invention comprises a DNA fragment of Eimeria coding for said polypeptide.
