Diversa's Human Antibody Program Recognized With The Gold Innovations in Healthcare(SM) Award
Friday June 27, 6:30 am ET

SAN DIEGO, June 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Diversa Corporation (Nasdaq: DVSA - News) today announced that it was awarded the Gold ABBY at the Adaptive Business Leaders (ABL) Organization's Fifth Annual Innovations in Healthcare(SM) Awards and Event for Diversa's development of a novel, proprietary Human Antibody Program. The ABL's Technology Advisory Board awards the ABBYs annually in recognition of outstanding advancements to the field of healthcare in medical technology, biotechnology, and information technology-enhanced healthcare services.

The Human Antibody Program combines Diversa's patented DirectEvolution® technologies with ultra high-throughput screening capabilities to generate a novel in vitro process for isolating fully human antibodies. Diversa has engineered its fully-synthetic library to deliver a more diverse collection of antibodies with better functional properties than traditional hybridoma, transgenic animal, and phage display technologies. This novel approach is designed to provide comprehensive antibody coverage against traditionally refractory targets in order to achieve improved therapeutic performance, higher production yields, and broad patent protection against follow-on antibodies. Diversa is currently using this platform in its collaboration with Syngenta on therapeutic antibody discovery projects. In addition, Diversa recently announced a Department of Defense award to work with the U.S. Army Medical Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID) to develop diagnostic and therapeutic antibodies against anthrax and to identify new targets associated with anthrax and plague pathology...
