Abstract

Abstract The method of producing clinical assays for use of monoclonal antibodies in the diagnosis of Herpes simplex virus (HSV) infections and the differentiation of Herpes Simplex virus types 1 and 2 as a diagnostic kit for differentiating HSV-1 and HSV-2 utilizing clone 1D4 against HSV-1 and clone 3E1 against HSV-2.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim 61 words
In a method of clinical testing and differentiating antibodies to Herpes simplex virus, HSV-1 and HSV-2, employing a competition immunoprecipitation, test, the improvement which comprises employing in said test as reagents monoclonal antibodies to the respective viruses HSV-1 and HSV-2 nucleocapsid p. 40 and p. 45 proteins of which antibodies are produced by hybrid cell lines ID4 (HSV-1) and 3EI (HSV-2).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 61 words
In a method of clinical testing and differentiating antibodies to Herpes simplex virus, HSV-1 and HSV-2, employing a competition immunoprecipitation, test, the improvement which comprises employing in said test as reagents monoclonal antibodies to the respective viruses HSV-1 and HSV-2 nucleocapsid p. 40 and p. 45 proteins of which antibodies are produced by hybrid cell lines ID4 (HSV-1) and 3EI (HSV-2).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 12 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the test is competition radioimmuno precipitation.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 59 words
In a method of clinical testing and differentiating antibodies to Herpes simplex virus, HSV-1 and HSV-2, employing the enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay, the improvement which comprises employing in said test as reagents monoclonal antibodies to the respective viruses HSV-1 and HSV-2 nucleocapsid p. 40 and p. 45 proteins which antibodies are produced by hybrid cell lines ID- (HSV-1) and 3EI(HSV-2).
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 59 words
In a method of clinical testing and differentiating antibodies to Herpes simplex virus, HSV-1 and HSV-2, employing the enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay, the improvement which comprises employing in said test as reagents monoclonal antibodies to the respective viruses HSV-1 and HSV-2 nucleocapsid p. 40 and p. 45 proteins which antibodies are produced by hybrid cell lines ID- (HSV-1) and 3EI(HSV-2).
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 10 words
The method of claim 3 wherein the enzyme is peroxidase.
Claim 7
Independent Claim 56 words
The method of testing and differentiating Herpes simplex virus, HSV-1 and HSV-2, in a test sample which comprises reacting the infected samples with monoclonal antibodies against the nucleocapsid p. 40 and p. 45 proteins of HSV-1 and HSV-2, respectively, and noting the reaction thereof by immuno-peroxidase assay, immunofluorescence assay, enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay immunoprecipitation assay, or radioimmunoassay.
Claim 8
Independent Claim 56 words
The method of testing and differentiating Herpes simplex virus, HSV-1 and HSV-2, in a test sample which comprises reacting the infected samples with monoclonal antibodies against the nucleocapsid p. 40 and p. 45 proteins of HSV-1 and HSV-2, respectively, and noting the reaction thereof by immuno-peroxidase assay, immunofluorescence assay, enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay immunoprecipitation assay, or radioimmunoassay.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 12 words
The method of claim 5 wherein the test is an immunoperoxidase assay.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 11 words
The method of claim 5 wherein the test is an radioimmunoassay.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 13 words
The method of claim 5 wherein the test is an enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 12 words
The method of claim 5 wherein the test is an immunofluorescence assay.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 12 words
The method of claim 5 wherein the test is an immunoprecipitation assay.
