Integral Molecular’s Animal Coronavirus Reporter Virus Particles (RVPs) are replication-incompetent pseudotyped virus particles that enable safe (BSL-2), easy, and high-throughput viral infectivity and neutralization assays using standard detection instrumentation. RVPs for animal coronaviruses are a valuable tool to assess breadth of neutralization for therapeutics against human coronaviruses or to identify antibodies that target conserved regions in coronaviruses. Animal CoV RVPs display antigenically correct spike protein on a heterologous virus core and carry a modified genome that expresses a convenient optical reporter gene within 24 hours of cellular infection.
Protocols are provided for neutralization and infectivity assays.
