Utility of pandemic H1N1 2009 influenza virus recombinant hemagglutinin protein-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for serosurveillance.

Expression of HA1 antigen of H5N1 influenza virus as a potent candidate for vaccine in bacterial system

The impending influenza virus pandemic requires global vaccination to prevent large-scale mortality and morbidity, but traditional influenza virus vaccine production is too slow for rapid responses. In this study, bacterial system has been developed for expression and purification of properly folded HA1 antigen as a rapid response to emerging pandemic strains. Here, a recombinant H5N1 (A/Indone...

Serosurveillance for pandemic influenza A (H1N1) 2009 virus infection in domestic elephants, Thailand

The present study conducted serosurveillance for the presence of antibody to pandemic influenza A (H1N1) 2009 virus (H1N1pdm virus) in archival serum samples collected between 2009 and 2013 from 317 domestic elephants living in 19 provinces situated in various parts of Thailand. To obtain the most accurate data, hemagglutination-inhibition (HI) assay was employed as the screening test; and sera...

Designing of A Multi-epitope Recombinant Protein, Consisting of Several Conserved Epitopes from Hemagglutinin Protein of the H1N1 and H5N1 Strains of Influenza Virus by Immunoinformatics Approaches

Introduction: According to marked advances in bioinformatics studies, development of influenza vaccines has been greatly modified in many studies. In this study, we have designed a multi-epitope recombinant protein, consisting of several conserved epitopes from Hemagglutinin protein of the H1N1 and H5N1 strains of Influenza virus by immunoinformatics approaches. Materials and Methods: The regis...

تخلیص پروتیین نوترکیب هماگلوتینین (HA1) ویروس آنفلوانزا سویه (A(H1N1 و تولید آنتی‌بادی پلی‌کلونال علیه آن

Background: Each year, Human influenza A (H1N1) virus causes moderate to severe infections with a high prevalence throughout the world. Accordingly, the rapid, sensitive and cost-effective laboratory diagnosis based on viral antigen detection is important. Moreover, the generation of specific antibodies directed against Influenza antigens is essential to the success of both basic and applied re...
