IMMUNODETECTION METHOD FOR INFLUENZA VIRUS H5 SUBTYPE

摘要

It is intended to provide a method capable of detecting an influenza virus H5 subtype specifically, rapidly and simply and an assaying device. An antibody, particularly a monoclonal antibody, specifically reacting with a hemagglutinin protein of the influenza virus H5 subtype was obtained. Accordingly, an immunoassay method using the antibody, particularly a sandwich immunoassay method using a primary antibody and a secondary antibody against the hemagglutinin protein, particularly an immunochromatography assay method and a test strip for the immunochromatography method are provided. At least either of the primary antibody and the secondary antibody is preferably the monoclonal antibody.
