Immediate Availability of Zika Envelope Protein Antigen ELISA kit

Alpha Diagnostic International, Inc. (ADI) is excited to announce the availability of the Zika envelope protein antigen quantitative ELISA to facilitate the rapid development of Zika vaccines. This newly developed, first of its kind Zika envelope protein antigen ELISA is a simple, rapid (<4 hours.), and highly sensitive (<0.5 ng/ml) test to measure the Zika envelope protein in vaccine formulations. The non-quantitative reagents and tests that are currently available from various other suppliers were not optimized for performing quantitative assays, thereby making it very tedious and difficult to perform research aimed towards the development of Zika vaccines. Most Zika vaccines that are actively under development and testing are targeted towards the Zika envelope protein as the sole or major active component for the vaccine formulations.

ADI’s MERS-CoV ELISA kits used in patient study published in Nature journal

A group of renowned medical scientists from South Korea has published the findings of a study performed on MERS patients in Nature journal. They used Anti-MERS-CoV S1 ELISA kit obtained from Alpha Diagnostic International (ADI) to measure specific antibody responses to the MERS-CoV spike protein S1 domain. The study concluded that the correlation of the virological and immunological responses with disease severity and mortality, as well as their responses to current antiviral therapy, may have prognostic significance during the early phase of MERS.

MERS-CoV ELISA kits

Alpha Diagnostic International is now marketing MERS-CoV ELISA kits for detection of viral antigens / antibodies in humans, camels, bats, etc. ADI has MERS recombinant proteins and antibodies. http://4adi.com/objects/catalog/product/extras/MERS_Vaccine_ELISA_Flr.pdf

Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) is viral respiratory illness that was recently recognized in humans. It was first reported in Saudi Arabia in 2012 and has since spread to several other countries, including the US, UK, Algeria and Malaysia. Most people identified as infected with MERS-CoV developed severe acute respiratory illness, including fever, cough, and shortness of breath. About 3 to 4 out of every 10 patients reported with MERS have died. Animals such as camels, donkeys, pigs, bats, etc have also been detected with the MERS Coronavirus.

Newly Developed ELISA Test Kits for Screening Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Viral Infections

Alpha Diagnostic International, Inc. has recently developed multiple ELISA test kits for screening MERS virus infections in humans and animals. For additional details on MERS-CoV related products, please visit: http://4adi.com/objects/catalog/product/extras/MERS_Vaccine_ELISA_Flr.pdf

“ADI has cloned and expressed various MERS recombinant proteins, made antibodies, and developed various ELISA kits to detect antibodies in animals and humans..." added Dr. Ali.

San Antonio, Texas (PRWEB) August 17, 2016

The Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) outbreak over the past several years has created an urgent need for diagnostic and therapeutic solutions. Alpha Diagnostic International, Inc. (ADI) has developed multiple ELISA test kits for screening MERS virus infections. These test kits will greatly enhance the ability to screen and quarantine humans and other animal species suspected of being infected by the MERS virus and become an important diagnostic tool for the health community as they work to combat further spread of the disease. For additional details on MERS-CoV related products, please visit: http://4adi.com/objects/catalog/product/extras/MERS_Vaccine_ELISA_Flr.pdf

MERS is a viral respiratory infection suspected to be derived from bats. MERS symptoms can range from asymptomatic to severe or even lethal. MERS infected individuals exhibit a high fatality rate with about a third of confirmed cases succumbing to death. What was first identified as an outbreak restricted to countries within the Arabian Peninsula has now shown up in several other Asian countries. The largest outbreak outside of Saudi Arabia was in South Korea in May of 2015 with 36 confirmed deaths and several thousand individuals quarantined. In total worldwide, there have been 1,791 confirmed cases of MERS-CoV, 640 MERS-CoV related deaths, and 27 affected countries.

“ADI has recognized the urgency and importance of developing diagnostic reagents to test for potential viral infection since the very first outbreak in the Middle East during 2012,” says Dr. Masarrat Ali, Scientific Director and President of ADI. “ADI has cloned and expressed various MERS recombinant proteins, made antibodies, and developed various ELISA kits to detect antibodies in animals and humans. ADI is the first company to introduce commercial ELISA kits to detect antibodies in humans, camels, and many other species,” added Dr. Ali.

The MERS ELISA kits developed by ADI allow for the testing of 96 samples using a single kit; each kit contains all reagents and positive and negative controls to perform the tests. These kits have been developed for testing samples in humans, camels, bats, pigs, cows, goats, and sheep. For each species, there are 3 different kits available for testing antibodies against nucleoprotein, spike protein 1, and spike protein 2.

About Alpha Diagnostic International, Inc.: ADI is a privately held, U.S. biotechnology company headquartered in San Antonio, Texas. ADI develops, manufactures, and supplies novel diagnostic and quality control reagents and test kits for use in basic biological and disease research in humans and animals. An important mission of ADI is to develop and supply diagnostic and validating solutions for promoting global health through improved vaccine therapeutics and mitigating the spread of human and animal diseases.

San Antonio, Texas, August 10, 2016

Alpha Diagnostic International, Inc. (ADI) is excited to announce the launch of TruStrip Rapid Meat Identification Test Kit for the screening of adulteration in ground meat products. This revolutionary test kit vastly simplifies the process of screening ground meat products for any undesired meats and can be performed by any individual without the need for special training or instrumentation. The results of the test are obtained within a matter of minutes—similar to performing a home-based pregnancy test. This new product is an evolution from the previous 1-hour ELISA test kit for the testing of horse, pig, and rat meats. For a video demonstration of the TruStrip Rapid Meat Identification Test Kit, please visit: https://trustrips.com/TruStripRDT/RDT-Videos

Adulterated ground meat is a major source of concern in the food industry, typically resulting in huge losses for the producers of meat products. Similar to the horse meat scandal in Europe in 2013 that resulted in the recall of large quantities of ground meat products from grocery stores and restaurants, the fear of tainted or adulterated meat is a concern to consumers as well. Ethical and religious concerns are two of the main issues for consumers, fueling the need for a simple testing method that can be used by any individual. Compared to other time-consuming testing methods such as PCR-based assays or ELISA tests that require specialized training, testing facilities, and instrumentation, the TruStrip test kit can be used in any environment and produces results within minutes.

“The availability of a simple test that can be performed by anyone without any special training or instrumentation is a valuable product that can be utilized by a broad number of users ranging from food testing laboratories, ground meat producers, restaurateurs, grocery stores, and even regular consumers,” says Dr. Masarrat Ali, Scientific Director and President of ADI. “Now, there is no reason to invest a lot of time and money to ship samples to specialized testing laboratories or become a victim of any ‘adulterated-meat’ scandals,” added Dr. Ali.

The TruStrip Rapid Meat Identification Test Kit is available as a 10-test, 25-test, and 100-test kit and contains all reagents, test strips, and positive and negative control samples. The kit is designed for testing ground meat from species that include pork, beef, goat, chicken, and horse. The kit can be used to test any ground meat sample for the presence of adulterating meat from a single species and up to 5 species in a single assay.
