Patents by Inventor Bosco Shang Wang

Bosco Shang Wang 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).

  • Immunologic enhancement of the somatogenic effect of somatotropin with an antibody
    Patent number: 6165465
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to antibodies, in particular monoclonal antibodies, of porcine somatotropin (pST). When these antibodies are administered together with pST, the growth of vertebrates is greater than that achieved with the administration of pST alone. The invention is also directed to an increase in the growth of vertebrates which persists over long periods when an antibody to a somatotropin is administered together with such somatotropin.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 15, 1990
    Date of Patent: December 26, 2000
    Assignee: American Cyanamid Company
    Inventors: Bosco Shang Wang, Araceli L. Lumanglas, Ian C. Hart
  • Biologically active porcine somatotropin polypeptides and methods of using the same
    Patent number: 5912325
    Abstract: An isolated polypeptide corresponding to the epitope of porcine somatotropin is provided by this invention as well as methods of enhancing the growth of an animal by administering to the animal this polypeptide in compositions.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 5, 1994
    Date of Patent: June 15, 1999
    Assignee: American Cyanamid Company
    Inventors: Bosco Shang Wang, Hong-Ming Shieh, Martin John Corbett
  • Antibodies specifically recognizing somatotropin binding proteins
    Patent number: 5807550
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to antibodies, in particular monoclonal antibodies, which specifically bind to somatotropin binding proteins of animals, but not with the corresponding somatotropin receptors. The antibodies may be used alone to enhance the growth of animals, or may be used together with somatotropin to potentiate the effect of somatotropin in animals. The antibodies may also be used to assay the level of somatotropin binding protein of animals.
    Type: Grant
