influenza a viruses possesses two virion surface glycoproteins including haemagglutinin (ha) and neuraminidase (na). the na plays an important role in viral replication and promotes virus release from infected cells and facilitates virus spread throughout the body. to find out any genomic changes that might be occurred on na gene of avian influenza circulating viruses, we have genetically analy...

avian influenza is one of the most important diseases in avian industry, which also threats human population. thus, vaccination is necessary for controlling this viral disease. in this study, killed vaccine of avian influenza subtype h9n2 and formalin solution (for virus inactivation) were used. it is necessary to study the effect of different factors such as formalin concentration, as well as ...
