Non-invasive Serological Assay to predict Toxoplasma-associated disease in at-risk populations

Unmet Need: Toxoplasmic Encephalitis (TE) is a life-threatening central nervous system (CNS) disorder that results from the reactivation of a chronic brain infection with Toxoplasma gondii. Chronic T. gondii infection poses a constant and severe danger in situations of immunodeficiency as can occur in HIV infection, organ transplantation, or cancer...

Human Papillomavirus Virus-like-participle Protein

TITLEHuman Papillomavirus Virus-like-participle ProteinCASE NUMBERC04137ABSTRACTVirus-like particles (VLPs) are extraordinary molecules that resemble and mimic the structure of authentic viruses without being infectious. Since they do not contain any viral genetic material, they are able to elicit a strong immune response, without doing any actual...
