iv 8607463 MICROTITER - SURFACE FLOCCULATION ASSAY FOR ANTIGEN OR ANTIBODY SCREENING

Nrapendra NATH assigned to AMERICAN NATIONAL RED CROSS An objective microtiter-surface-flocculation assay for antigen or antibody screening. The assay employs slanting solid surface coated with an antibody to a protein in a 'V' shaped microtiter well. The assay is readable by instrument means and is automatable fully or partially. A kit containing various components of the assay is also disclosed.

biologically active copolymers are also useful as growth promoters for animals. Compounds within the biologically-active copolymers of the present invention are effective tumoricidal agents. The biologically-active copolymer of the present invention is a safe and non-toxic formulation that can effectively be administered to animals or humans. The biologically-active copolymer can be mixed in an oil and water emulsion and administered to an animal or human by injection.

When injected into an animal or human with an antigen, the biologically-active copolymers cause immunosuppression to the antigen. The

Recombinant vaccines for immunizing horses against equine influenza virus (EIV). The DNA sequences encoding the hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) glycoproteins from the two strains of EIV currently infective in horses are used to construct vaccinia carried vaccines, to design synthetic peptides for primer and booster administration, and to permit recombinant synthesis of HA and/or NA protein based vaccines. These DNA sequences also provide probes useful for preparing similar vaccines from fresh isolates of new strains generated by genetic drift.
