MONOCLONAL ANTIBODY AGAINST INFLUENZA B VIRUS AND IMMUNOASSAY INSTRUMENT USING THE ANTIBODY
摘要
<p>A highly specific monoclonal antibody against influenza B virus and an immunoassay instrument using the same whereby influenza B virus can be specifically detected. This monoclonal antibody against influenza B virus undergoes an antigen-antibody reaction with a nucleoprotein of influenza virus B having a molecular weight of from 60 to 75 kD but substantially shows no antigen-antibody reaction with influenza A virus.</p>
