  • Patent number: 10451634
    Abstract: Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is often conjugated with therapeutic proteins to enhance their PK properties. PEG may, however, be immunogenic, and the presence of PEG in food and cosmetics is believed to result in pre-existing anti-PEG antibodies in humans. Polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies reactive to PEG are provided for use in immunogenicity assay development to detect such anti-drug antibodies. Such antibodies exhibit preferential binding based on the size of PEG with molecular weight ranging from 350 daltons to 40 kD. Anti-PEG antibodies of the invention are engineered to comprise human Fc regions to enable non-bridging immunoassay formats.

  • Patent number: 10289691
    Abstract: In embodiments of dynamic replication of networked files, a process that utilizes file system objects is executed on a computing device. A file system request that is initiated by the process for a requested file system object can be intercepted, and a determination is made as to whether the requested file system object exists based on file system metadata. The file system request from the process is returned if the requested file system object is stored on the computing device. Alternatively, replication of the requested file system object is initiated from a networked peer device that has the requested file system object to replicate the file system object to the computing device. Alternatively, an indication that the requested file system object does not exist can be returned to the process.
