Zika Virus Assay Systems
First Claim
1. An assay system comprising a porous matrix comprising at least three zones, Zone A, Zone B, and Zone C, whereinZone A comprises a binding construct that binds to a Zika virus (ZIKV) protein and does not bind to a Dengue virus (DENV) protein, wherein the binding construct is not bound to a Zika virus,Zone B comprises a binding construct that binds to a ZIKV protein and does not bind to a DENV protein, wherein the binding construct is bound to a Zika virus, andZone C comprises a secondary antibody which binds the binding construct of Zone A and Zone B.

- 26. A binding construct comprising the structure A1-B-A2 wherein A1 is a first peptide arm that binds to a first binding site of a target protein, A2 is a second peptide arm that binds to a second binding site of the target protein, and B is a bridge peptide which links A1 to A2, optionally, wherein the bridge peptide is about 5 to about 10 amino acids in length.
