  • Real-time assay for the detection of botulinum toxin
    Patent number: 9284595
    Abstract: A real-time portable and rapid detection assay to identify the presence of biologically active toxins such as botulinum toxins. The proteolytic activity of BoNT/A is measured using a peptide cleavage assay, where a fluorescent substrate is cleaved by BoNT/A, resulting in increased fluorescence. This fluorescence can be monitored in real-time using a fluorescence detection instrument, such as a real-time PCR system that has been modified to implement a detection algorithm specific to the identification of the target toxin.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 12, 2014
    Date of Patent: March 15, 2016
    Assignee: SRC, Inc.
    Inventors: Kenton Arthur Doctor, Stacey Ann Massulik, Frances Louise Stites, Timothy Francis Moshier, Jeffrey Harold Mills, Lisa Helen Chamberlin, Deborah Lynne Plochocki, Olivia Jennifer Barrett, Huda Sirageldin Suliman
