Anti-Influenza B Nucleoprotein Antibody [B114] (A279742)

Anti-Influenza B Nucleoprotein Antibody [B114]

Mouse monoclonal [B114] antibody to Influenza B Nucleoprotein.

This antibody recognises a species specific conserved epitope within the nucleoprotein of influenza B virus. The influenza viruses, classified as type A, B and C, are members of the Orthomyxoviridae family which differ in their epidemiology and host ranges and lack serological cross-reactivity of their internal components, especially their matrix proteins and nucleoprotein. Influenza B virus is a slow-mutating single stranded RNA virus subject to antigenic drift which, although enough to prevent lasting immunity, prevents influenza B from causing pandemics. Mouse anti Influenza B Nucleoprotein antibody, clone B114 can be used in influenza B IFA typing in conjunction with MCA403 (clone B017).
