Abstract: Selon les agriculteurs, qui ont du mal à lutter contre les maladies de la vigne, il se trouve que malgré des pulvérisations surabondantes, la superficie pulvérisée des plants est insuffisante: les produits pulvérisés ne peuvent pénétrer au-delà du feuillage extérieur dense, ce qui fait que certaines parties des plants, le sommet en particulier, sont insuffisamment traitées. C'est pourquoi il a fallu veiller à ce que les produits pulvérisés se déposent plus efficacement sur le feuillage auquel ils sont destinés, ce qui permettrait de réduire le volume du véhicule liquide et ainsi la quantité de produits chimiques nécessaire pour une culture donnée. Ce problème a été résolu par la présente invention. Deux éléments de pulvérisation (14) équipés de ventilateurs sont orientés vers le haut, sur le feuillage, de façon à déplacer les feuilles vers le haut et vers l'extérieur, en même temps qu'au moins un élément de pulvérisation (16) supplémentaire est orienté vers le bas et dirige le produit vers l'intérieur du feuillage et partiellement à travers celui-ci. Les éléments de pulvérisation sont montés sur une structure en U inversé (21), elle-même montée sur un châssis mobile ou sur un tracteur (10) de façon qu'on puisse la déplacer dans la zone de culture. Dans un mode de réalisation privilégié, deux éléments de pulvérisation (16) supérieurs sont employés, avec possibilité d'utiliser un cinquième élément de pulvérisation (17) monté vers le sommet (22) de la structure en U inversé (21). Il est également possible de faire appel à plusieurs structures (21) suspendues à un mât surélevé (12). L'opération est améliorée par un système de détection et de commande automatisées qui règle la distance des éléments de pulvérisation (15, 16, 17) par rapport au feuillage, ajuste le débit selon le volume du feuillage, la superficie de feuilles et le produit, règle soigneusement la position et l'orientation des éléments de pulvérisation (15, 16, 17) et ajuste l'allure de marche du matériel de pulvérisation selon le volume de produit pulvérisé. Les produits pulvérisés peuvent être des insecticides, des herbicides, des huiles et des engrais.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a glycoconjugate immunoreactive with Toxoplasma gondii antibodies, (monoclonal) antibodies against these glycoconjugates, and cell lines capable of producing monoclonal antibodies. The invention is further concerned with immunochemical reagents and methods for the detection of T. gondii or antibodies directed agains T. gondii. Furthermore the invention relates to a therapeutic reagent for the inhibition of replication of T. gondii parasites and a method for the production of a live attenuated T. gondii vaccine. It has now been found, and in contrast with earlier publications in this art, that several glycoconjugates are immunoreactive with Toxoplasma gondii specific antibodies comprising a glycan core structure having general formula (I) wherein R1 = Hydrogen, -PO3-CH2-CH2-NH2 (ethanolamine-phosphate), or -PO3-CH2-CH2-NH-X, wherein X = a T. gondii specific antigen; wherein R2 =  alpha -O-R4,  alpha (1-4)-O-anhydromannitol or  alpha (1-4)-O-glucoseamine optionally  alpha (1-6)-linked to the inositol moiety of a phosphatidylinositol membrane anchor; wherein R3 = a monosaccharide moiety, wherein R4 = Hydrogen or -L-R5, wherein L = a bivalent organic radical and R5 = a functional group that allows coupling to a carrier. A preferred embodiment of the monosaccharide moiety is a hexose moiety, more preferred is a glucose moiety, and most preferred is a glucose moiety which is bonded to the GalNAc-moiety by an  alpha -1,4 glycosidic bond. It has been found that the glycoconjugates according to the present invention are particularly suitable for diagnosing T. gondii infected humans.
