Design, Production, and Evaluation of Virosomes from H1N1 Influenza Virus

Background: The last two decades witnessed the spread of the first generation of influenza viruses. Influenza virosomes are promising tools in vaccine and immunotherapy programs because of their applications in various medical fields. The aim of the present study was to construct cationic virosomes derived from influenza virus using dialyzable detergent (DCPC) and cationic lipid (DOTAP) in vit...

Immunofluorescence Method for The Detection of Non-Pathogenic Influenza Virus

The direct F.A. Method has been used for diffe­rentiation of virulent and avirulent lines of influenza viruses. A positive fluorescence was obtained indi­cating the level of virus in the tissues, sorbing with dried mouse powder helped to reduce non-specific staining. The virulent line showed the greatest num­ber of fluorescent cells with the peak at 10 hours. the non-virulent lines showed a gra...
