Applied DNA Sciences Company

Applied DNA said March 24 that it filed a provisional patent application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) for its diagnostic assay under development for SARS-CoV-2—five days after announcing it had completed the design of the assay. The assay uses PCR-based detection of viral sequences that code for the Spike protein that is also the target of Applied DNA’s vaccine candidate partnered with Takis Biotech.

Applied DNA began large-scale production of the four vaccine candidates in March via the company’s proprietary PCR-based DNA (“LinearDNA”) manufacturing systems. “Within weeks of arrival we expect to immediately scale up PCR-based production of each vaccine candidate and ship them back to Takis who will determine each vaccine’s relative abilities to provoke an immune response in vaccinated mice” stated James A. Hayward, President and CEO of Applied DNA.
