摘要:
A method and system for evaluating a public sector organization includes identifying at least one outcome measure and at least one cost-effectiveness measure for a public sector organization; obtaining measurements associated with the measure; and determining a relative public performance measure of the public sector organization based on the measurements.

The present invention relates to a new method of producing functionally active recombinant porcine Intrinsic Factor as well as the protein (i.e., porcine Intrinsic Factor) produced thereby. In particular, the vector comprising the DNA encoding the protein is introduced into a Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) host cell under conditions sufficient for optimal expression of functional protein. The expressed protein may then be subjected to three methods ultimately resulting in a protein having at least 97% purity.
摘要:
The subject invention relates to methods for the simultaneous detection of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) antigens as well as antibodies produced in response to HCV antigens. Furthermore, the subject invention allows one to detect antigens in the early, acute stage of infection, even prior to the development of antibodies, thereby allowing for early detection of infected blood and blood products, thus improving the safety of the blood supply.

摘要:
Hepatitus GB Virus (HGBV) nucleic acid and amino acid sequences useful for a variety of diagnostic and theraeutic applications, kits for using the HGBV nucleic acid or amino acid sequences, HGBV immunogenic particles, and antibodies which specifically bind to HGBV. Also provided are methods for producing antibodies, polyclonal or monoclonal, from the HGBV nucleic acid or amino acid sequences.
摘要:
Indirectly labelled assay conjugates prepared by a method that includes the step of submitting the binding member comprised by the conjugate to denaturing conditions prior to labelling the binding member. The indirectly labelled assay conjugates demonstrate an increased sensitivity when employed in diagnostic assays compared to assay conjugates prepared by methods that do not include a step of submitting the binding member to denaturing conditions prior to labelling. Processes for the preparation of the indirectly labelled assay conjugates, methods of detecting an analyte comprising the use of the indirectly labelled assay conjugate and kits comprising the indirectly labelled conjugates are also provided.
