Foot And Mouth Disease Virus Diagnostic And Methods
US Patent:
2003014, Aug 7, 2003
Filed:
May 20, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/147920

International Classification:
C12Q001/70, C12Q001/68, C12P021/08, G01N033/53, C07H021/04, A61K039/125, C12N007/00, C07K016/00
US Classification:
536/024320, 435/005000, 435/006000, 435/007100, 536/023720, 435/235100, 530/388300, 424/216100
Abstract:
The invention relates to diagnostic methods, probes, detection systems and kits for the identification of foot and mouth disease virus (FMDV) infection in a biological sample obtained from a farm animal. It was discovered that a highly conserved region of sequence existed with the 3D coding region of the FMDV genome. This region was found to be strikingly similar, and often identical or with only one or two nucleotide substitution, between the various serotypes of FMDV. Thus, by performing PCR analysis with probes comprising sequences form this region or ELISA with antibodies directed to polypeptide products expressed from this region, a plurality of serotypes of FMDV could be detected from a single test. Further, by including dried PCR reagents plus trehelose, kits could be stored at room temperatures for long periods of time without any significant loss in sensitivity or specificity. Thus, FMDV assays could be performed on site, within the field and quickly so that a diagnosis of FMDV infection can be made within hours.
Spore Specific Antigen
US Patent:
7928204, Apr 19, 2011
Filed:
Sep 23, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/234752
Inventors:
Beverly L. Mangold - Rockville MD, US
Jennifer L. Aldrich - Frederick MD, US
William Max Nelson - Potomac MD, US

Assignee:
Tetracore, Inc. - Rockville MD
International Classification:
C07K 16/00
US Classification:
5303881, 5303882
Abstract:
The invention relates to a spore specific antigen. Compositions and methods relating to the antigen are provided along with antibodies against the antigen. The antigen is specific for spores relative to the vegetative form of the cells. The antigen is detectable on ungerminated spores. The antibodies may be used to detect the presence of spores by use of methods provided herein. The invention also relates to articles of manufacture as well as kits comprising the antibodies which may be used in the detection methods of the invention.
Detection Of Prrsv
US Patent:
2005017, Aug 4, 2005
Filed:
Oct 8, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/962305
Inventors:
Johnny Callahan - Severn MD, US
William Nelson - Potomac MD, US
William Nelson - Potomac MD, US
Assignee:
Tetracore, Inc. - Gaithersburg MD
International Classification:
C12Q001/70, C12Q001/68, C12P019/34
US Classification:
435005000, 435006000, 435091200
Abstract:
This invention provides compositions and methods for the detection of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome viruses (PRRSV). The invention provides oligonucleotides containing sequences complementary to those in ORF 7 and the 3′-UTR (untranslated region) of PRRSV which oligonucleotides may be used to detect the presence of PRRSV sequences, and thus the presence of PRRSV infection, by use of methods provided by the invention. The invention also provides articles of manufacture as well as kits comprising these oligonucleotides which may be used in the detection methods of the invention.
