Influenza B/Victoria Lineage Viruses Hemagglutinin (HA) Specific ELISA Kit

Influenza, commonly known as 'the flu', is an infectious disease of birds and mammals caused by RNA viruses of the family Orthomyxoviridae, the influenza viruses. The virus is divided into three main types (Influenzavirus A, Influenzavirus B, and Influenzavirus C), which are distinguished by differences in two major internal proteins (hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA), which are the most important targets for the immune system. Hemagglutinin binds to the sialic acid-containing receptors on the surface of host cells during initial infection and at the end of an infectious cycle which makes it a great target for vaccine studies.

1. Unopened kit should be stored at 2°C-8°C upon receiving. 2. Find the expiration date on the outside packaging and do not use reagents past their expiration date. 3. The opened kit should be stored per components table. The shelf life is 30 days from the date of opening.

This assay kit employs a standard sandwich-ELISA format, providing a rapid detection of Influenza B/Victoria lineage viruses HA. The kit consists of Pre-coated Anti-HA (Influenza B/Victoria Lineage) Antibody Microplate and HA (Influenza B/Victoria Lineage) Standard,HRP-Anti-HA (Influenza B/Victoria Lineage) Antibody and buffers.
