Production and use of encapsidated RNA mimics as positive control reagents for SARS-CoV-2 RT-qPCR diagnostics. Journal of Virological Methods, 300, Article 114372. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jviromet.2021.114372

The current gold standard technique for SARS-CoV-2 diagnostics is hydrolysis probe-based RT-qPCR. Reliable testing requires reliable control reagents to monitor the efficiency of RNA extraction, reverse transcription and PCR amplification. Here we de...

Producing Vaccines against Enveloped Viruses in Plants: Making the Impossible, Difficult (2021)
Journal Article
Peyret, H., Steele, J. F. C., Jung, J.-W., Thuenemann, E. C., Meshcheriakova, Y., & Lomonossoff, G. P. (2021). Producing Vaccines against Enveloped Viruses in Plants: Making the Impossible, Difficult. Vaccines, 9(7), Article 780. https://doi.org/10.3390/vaccines9070780

The past 30 years have seen the growth of plant molecular farming as an approach to the production of recombinant proteins for pharmaceutical and biotechnological uses. Much of this effort has focused on producing vaccine candidates against viral dis... Read More about Producing Vaccines against Enveloped Viruses in Plants: Making the Impossible, Difficult.
