Hyer, Christina Cottrell | Effect of M1 Matrix Protein on Hemagglutinin Expression and Influenza Virus-Like Particle Production in Trichoplusia NI | Virus-like particles (VLPs) are a new and effective flu vaccine approach. VLPs are non-infectious and can produce robust immune responses. Flu VLPs are typically created by co-expressing the flu hemagglutinin (HA) surface antigen and the matrix protein M1-which assists in viral and VLP budding-in cu... | | 2017 |

Lietzke, Stephanie | Removal of endotoxins from recombinant antithrombin | Endotoxins (also known as lipopolysaccharides or ETs) are a pyrogenic byproduct of the breakdown of gram-negative bacterial cell-walls, such as E. coli. They cause fever and septic shock in humans, and are therefore highly regulated by the FDA and USP. ETs are a common contaminant in recombinant pr... | Endotoxins - Research; Antithrombins - Therapeutic use; Sheep as laboratory animals - Research; endotoxin removal; Angiogenesis | 2016-04 |
