Influenza A (H3N2) Antigen

Catalog #: 227-20169

Influenza A (H3N2)

Product Description

Specifications

Size1 mL
Estimated Lead Time3-4 weeks
Expression SystemChicken Eggs
Purity Determined ByEggs are infected by the amniotic route, incubated for 72 hours and refrigerated overnight. Amniotic fluids are harvested from live eggs and the embryos are washed in PBS. The suspension was concentrated using cross-flow ultracentrifugation system with 30, 000 molecular weight cut off. The concentrate is sonicated and clarified using low speed centrifugation. This preparation contains a high concentration of viral antigens as well as some egg proteins in PBS.
Format
Purified, Liquid
Formulation
PBS
Preservative
None
Recommended ApplicationsApplication: Suitable for use in Immunoassay. This antigen preparation should be sonicated with a microtip immediately prior to use to ensure that the preparation is uniform. A precipitate may form upon thawing, due to high product concentration. Dilute prior to clarification or other manipulation. Each laboratory should determine an optimum working titer for use in its particular application. Other applications have not been tested but use in such assays should not necessarily be excluded.
Research AreaInfectious Disease, Influenza
Inactivation
Gamma radiation inactivation. Effectiveness determined when no detection of growth in two blind passages under the original culture conditions. Result: No live virus detected by CPE or HA assay.
Shipping TypeDry ice (additional shipping fee)
Storage-70°C
