  • Patent number: 10351895
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a biological method for the dosage of peptidoglycans in a sample, especially a sample of glucose polymers.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 5, 2015
    Date of Patent: July 16, 2019
    Assignee: Roquette Freres
    Inventors: Pierre Lanos, Marc Biguet, Roselyne Bernard, Fabrice Allain, Mathieu Carpentier, Agnès Denys, Héla Hacine-Gherbi
  • Publication number: 20180188233
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a biological method for assaying peptidoglycans (PGN) in a sample, particularly a sample of glucose polymers. The PGN assay includes: a) treating the glucose polymer sample by sonication, heating, and/or alkalizing; b) placing the treated sample or a dilution thereof in contact with a recombinant cell expressing an exogenous TLR2 (toll-like receptor 2) and a reporter gene directly dependent on the signaling pathway associated with the TLR2. The reporter gene codes for a colored or fluorescent protein or for a protein the activity of which is measurable with or without a substrate; c) measuring the reporter gene signal; and d) determining the amount of PUN in the sample using a standard curve of the correlation between the amount of PGN and the strength of the reporter gene signal.
