Virus
Conjugated Peptide
Anti-Avian influenza hemagglutinin antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to 15 amino acids at the N-terminus of the avian influenza hemagglutinin protein. Efforts were made to use relatively conserved regions of the viral sequence as the antigen.
Anti-Avian Influenza Hemagglutinin Antibody was affinity purified from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity chromatography. Cross reactivity with Avian Influenza Hemagglutinin from other sources has not been determined.
Application Details
ELISA, WB
Anti-Avian Influenza Hemagglutinin Antibody has been tested for use in ELISA and Western Blotting. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect a band at approximately 64 kDa in Western Blots of specific cell lysates and tissues.

Influenza A virus is a major public health threat, killing more than 30, 000 people per year in the USA. Novel influenza virus strains caused by genetic drift and viral recombination emerge periodically to which humans have little or no immunity, resulting in devastating pandemics. Influenza A can exist in a variety of animals; however it is in birds that all subtypes can be found. These subtypes are classified based on the combination of the virus coat glycoproteins hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) subtypes. During 1997, an H5N1 avian influenza virus was determined to be the cause of death in 6 of 18 infected patients in Hong Kong. There was some evidence of human to human spread of this virus, but it is thought that the transmission efficiency was fairly low. HA interacts with cell surface proteins containing oligosaccharides with terminal sialyl residues. Virus isolated from a human infected with the H5N1 strain in 1997 could bind to oligosaccharides from human as well as avian sources, indicating its species-jumping ability.
