Description
The ViPrimePLUS Influenza Virus H7N9 RT-qPCR Kit is a Taqman probe-based real-time PCR assay for the detection of Influenza Virus Subtype H7N9 genome in respiratory and blood samples.
Influenza virus is a RNA virus that infects birds and mammals. Transmission is via contact with bodily fluid of infected person or animals. Symptoms of influenza disease are often confused with the less severe common cold, such as fever, sore throat, muscle and headaches, cough and fatigue. In persistent infection, it could develop into pneumonia which is fatal to children and elderly. The 3 types of influenza are influenza A, influenza B and the low epidemiological concern influenza C. Subtypes are termed based on the surface glycoprotein types, i.e. hemagglutinin (H) and neuraminidase (N). In human, type A and B are the common typical seasonal flu, resulting in 300,000 deaths yearly and up to millions in pandemic years. Pandemic usually occurs when the influenza virus acquires ability through mutation and gene reassortment to cross-infect between animals and human. Influenza A consists of only 1 species, infecting birds and some mammals. 
ViPrimePLUS Influenza Virus H7N9 RT-qPCR Kit is intended for research use only.
