Abstract
The CTB-Spike quantified by comparing CTB standard using 55.5, 38.6, 23.1, 12.6, and 6.8 ng in total protein loaded (120, 100, 50, 25 and 12.5 ng), respectively resulting in 46.2%, 38.5%, 46.1%, 50.5%, 54.4% of CTB-Spike in total leaf protein.

Indeed, this is the first engineered therapeutic protein approved by FDA free of protein purification or cold chain, and clinical trials are in progress to evaluate SARS-CoV-2 infection and transmission (Daniell I et al i ., [2]). Therefore, one approach recently developed involved debulking SARS-CoV-2 or other oral viruses in saliva using virus-trap proteins via chewing gums to minimize self-infection and transmission (Daniell I et al i ., [1],[2]).
