Application Details

Restrictions: For Research Use only

Handling

Format: Liquid

Buffer: PBS containing 0.02 % sodium azide.

Preservative: Sodium azide

Precaution of Use: WARNING: Reagents contain sodium azide. Sodium azide is very toxic if ingested or inhaled. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Wear eye or face protection when handling. If skin or eye contact occurs, wash with copious amounts of water. If ingested or inhaled, contact a physician immediately. Sodium azide yields toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide-containing compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in lead or copper plumbing.

Handling Advice: Avoid freezing and thawing repeatly.

Storage: 4 °C/-20 °C

Storage Comment: Store at 4 °C for short term use.Store at -20 °C for long term preservation.

Target Details for Influenza A Virus Neuraminidase

Target: Influenza A Virus Neuraminidase (NA)

Alternative Name: Influenza A Virus Neuraminidase

Target Type: Influenza Protein

Background: Influenza A virus is a major public health threat, killing more than 30, 000 people per year in the USA.Novel influenza virus strains emerge periodically to which humans have little or no immunity, resulting in devastating pandemics.Influenza A can exist in a variety of animals, however it is in birds that all subtypes can be found.These subtypes are classified based on the combination of the virus coat glycoproteins hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) subtypes.During 1997, an H5N1 avian influenza virus was determined to be the cause of death in 6 of 18 infected patients in Hong Kong.There was some evidence of human to human spread of this virus, but it is thought that the transmission efficiency was fairly low.Although it has been known that cleavage site and glycosylation patterns of the HA protein play important roles in determining the pathogenicity of H5 avian influenza viruses, it has only recently been shown that an additional glycosylation site within the globular head of the NA protein also contributes to the high virulence of the H5N1 virus.
