Application: ELISA

Catalog no.: ABIN305076

Additional Information

Alternative name: Influenza A Virus Hemagglutinin (HA) H5

Immunogen: Virus, Purified Avian Influenza Virus Type A (H5N1).

Isotype: IgG2a  (Matching secondary antibodies)

Clone: 15A6

Description: Gene: Influenza A Virus Hemagglutinin (HA) H5

Specificity: Detects hemagglutinin H5 from the Influenza A virus H5N1. Influenza A belongs to the Orthomyxoviridae family, and is a negative sense single-stranded RNA virus which results in respiratory disease. Hemagglutinin is an antigenic glycoprotein which allows viral attachment and entry into the cell. Sixteen subtypes of hemagglutinin (H1-H16) have been described, of which H1, H2 and H3 infect humans. H5 and H7 normally result in avian disease, with some highly pathogenic H5N1 strains causing 100% mortality in poultry. H5N1 has in some cases mutated to infect humans, with 60% mortality. Hemagglutinin is one of the most medically relevant antigens on influenza as it is a target for antiviral drugs and antibodies. May be used to detect Influenza H5N1 in ELISA assays
