Poliovirus structural and non-structural proteins were expressed in E. coli using autoinduction.
Purified proteins were used for raising antibodies.
Antisera raised could detect antigens in virus-infected cells by different immunoassays.
Antisera could detect both cleaved and uncleaved as well as native and denatured viral proteins.
These reagents may be useful in vaccine manufacturing and seromonitoring in the future.
