Title: Method and device for concentrating and stabilising conjugated oestrogens from the urine of pregnant mares onto solid supports
Inventor: AHNSORGE JURGEN
IPC: A61K38/00
Filed: 2001-07-26
Abstract: Described a method and device for concentrating and stabilising conjugated oestrogens from the urine of pregnant mares onto solid supports in order to obtain a suitable starting material for producing pharmaceuticals that contain the natural mixture of these conjugated oestrogens as the active component. The device is characterised by its suitability for practical, decentralised concentration and stabilisation of mixtures of conjugated oestrogens (CE) contained in the urine (PMU) of pregnant mares on a solid support (= adsorbent), especially in the proximity of the stable or field, in a column or a cartridge. The adsorber columns can be filled directly at the site of urine collection with the device. As a result, it is no longer necessary to transport large quantities of urine liquid daily to a central processing point. The filling process can take place continuously over a longer period of up to several weeks, until the adsorber column or cartridge is saturated. The leftover urine that runs off remains at the site, where suitable devices for disposal are already available. Only the filled column or cartridge is transported and the transport can take place at longer intervals and take longer, e.g., up to a few weeks. The stability of the CE on the adsorber ensures that there is no risk of decomposition.

Title: DNA encoding disulfide bond formation (Dsb) proteins from bacterial species of the genus Ehrlichia, such as Ehrlichia chaffeensis and Ehrlichia canis disulfide bond formation proteins.
Inventor: MCBRIDE JERE W
IPC: C12N1/21
Filed: 2002-11-01
Abstract: Genes encoding homologous immunoreactive thio-disulfide oxidoreductases, or disulfide bond formation (Dsb) proteins from Ehrlichia chaffeensis and Ehrlichia canis are disclosed. While the E. chaffeensis and E. canis Dsb proteins are at most only 31 % or less homologous to other known Dsb proteins, the Ehrlichia Dsbs contain a cysteine active site, Cys-Gly-Tyr-Cys, similar to those in known Dsb proteins. As predicted by 15-amino acid identical N-terminal signal peptides, the proteins are primarily localized in the periplasm of E. chaffeensis and E. canis, possibly playing a role in antigenicity and pathogenesis. The present invention provides the nucleotide and amino acid sequences and expression vectors for the E. chaffeensis and E. canis genes, antisera directed against the proteins, and kits to determine whether an individual or animal is infected with a given species of Ehrlichia.
