20150093389 | CLOSTRIDIUM DIFFICILE ANTIGENS - The present invention relates to recombinant | 04-02-2015 |
20140346365 | RADIATION DETECTION - An instrument for detecting radiation is provided, which comprises an inner core housing a neutron detector, and another core comprising a neutron-moderating material, the instrument further including at least one elongate thermal neutron guide located within the outer core and having an inner end that terminates proximal to the neutron detector. In use, the elongate thermal neutron guide channels thermal neutrons towards the neutron detector. Also provided is a method for using said instrument. | 11-27-2014 |
20140315215 | THERMOSTABLE ASSAY REAGENTS - There is provided a single-chain fusion protein comprising: (i) a thermostable kinase and (ii) a single-domain antibody or single-domain antibody fragment. There is also provided a method of preparing a single-domain antibody or single-domain antibody fragment, the method comprising: (i) expressing the single-domain antibody or antibody fragment as a single-chain fusion protein with a thermostable kinase, in a host cell such as | 10-23-2014 |
20140302063 | INFLUENZA VIRUS ANTIBODY COMPOSITIONS - The present invention relates to unique CDR3 amino acid sequences, and to antibodies comprising said sequences. Also provided are therapeutic applications of said antibodies for use in treating or preventing influenza infection, diagnostic applications of said antibodies for use in detecting influenza virus, potency testing of influenza virus vaccines, and screening applications of said antibodies for use in designing a universal influenza vaccine. | 10-09-2014 |
20140112952 | ATTENUATED POLIOVIRUSES - The invention provides an attenuated poliovirus which does not have a base pair mismatch in stem (a) or (b) of domain V of the 5′ non-coding region of its genome, wherein at least seven of the base pairs in stems (a) and (b) are U-A or A-U base pairs. | 04-24-2014 |
20140030740 | Rapid Bioluminescence Detection System - An assay is provided for detecting the activity of a reporter kinase comprising (i) adding said reporter kinase to an assay mixture wherein said reporter kinase is contacted with bioluminescent reagent no more than 5 minutes after being contacted with ADP, and wherein, prior to contacting the reporter kinase with ADP, the assay mixture is substantially free from kinase other than reporter kinase; and (ii) detecting light output from the assay mixture. Methods for detecting the presence of an analyte in a sample and methods for validating a treatment process using the above assay are also provided. Further provided are devices for conducting these assays and methods. | 01-30-2014 |
20130344108 | INACTIVATED POLIOVACCINE - The invention provides an attenuated polio virus having a 5′ non-coding region consisting of the 5′ non-coding region of Sabin 3, modified so that it does not have a base pair mismatch in stem (a) or (b) of domain V, wherein seven or eight of the base pairs in stems (a) and (b) are U-A or A-U base pairs; and a capsid protein from the Sabin 1, Mahoney, MEF or Saukett strain. | 12-26-2013 |
