A method for detecting MERS-CoV at high sensitivity and specificity using IgY antibodies that bind to MERS-CoV N protein, its fragments and domains. Isolated or purified IgY monospecific antibodies to MERS-CoV N protein.

Embodiments herein report compositions, methods, uses and manufacturing procedures for rotavirus constructs and immunogenic compositions thereof. Some embodiments concern compositions that include, but are not limited to, chimeric rotaviruses of use in immunogenic compositions against rotavirus infection as well as against other pathogenic virus infection in a subject. In certain embodiments, constructs of use herein can be generated and used where a rotavirus expression system further includes one or more nucleic acid molecules encoding one or more polypeptides of another pathogen (e.g. another enteric or mucosal pathogen).

The invention is directed to an oral vaccine composed of a micronized freeze-dried rotavirus particle suspension with buffering excipients in a non-aqueous liquid. This IVT-06 formulation has imparted heat stability by protecting the virus at temperatures of 30° C. and 40° C. for at least twelve months. Extrapolations from the 12-month stability data indicate a shelf life of more than two years at 30° C., and six months at 50° C. In addition, for ease of administration, the formulated dose has a volume of 0.5 mL.

The disclosure concerns methods for executing PBV protocols to preserve biopharmaceuticals using a conventional lyophilizer. Also described are steps for maintaining isolation of a biopharmaceuticals for achieving aseptic drying using the conventional lyophilizer. As a collateral benefit, the invention provides good manufacturing practice (GMP) compliant methods for achieving aseptic drying of biopharmaceutical compositions using a conventional lyophilizer disposed outside of a clean-room area. Finally, methods and formulations str disclosed for preserving biopharmaceuticals suitable for mucosal or transdermal delivery to a patient.
