  View All» Qty/Pk: 1 kit View All» Product Overview: Light Diagnostics™ Influenza A and B DFA Kit is intended for the detection and identification of influenza A and influenza B in respiratory specimens such as throat, nasal and nasopharyngeal swabs, nasopharyngeal aspirates, broncho-alveolar lavages from patients with febrile respiratory illness, following amplification of virus in cell culture. Negative results do not preclude influenza virus infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or other management decisions.Performance characteristics for influenza A were established when influenza A/H3 and A/H1 were the predominant influenza A viruses in circulation. When other influenza A viruses are emerging, performance characteristics may vary. If infection with a novel influenza A virus is suspected based on current clinical and epidemiological screening criteria recommended by public health authorities, specimens should be collected with appropriate infection control precautions for novel virulent influenza viruses and sent to state or local health departments for testing. Viral culture should not be attempted in these cases unless a Biosafety Level 3 (BSL 3+) facility is available to receive and culture specimens. For In Vitro Diagnostic Use. Test Principle: Light Diagnostics Influenza A and B DFA utilizes a direct immunofluorescent antibody technique for identifying influenza virus in infected cells. The antibody is labeled with fluorescein, which produces an apple-green fluorescence when illuminated with ultraviolet light. The labeled antibody will bind to viral antigen present in the specimen. Unbound reagent is removed by rinsing with phosphate buffered saline (PBS). Antigen-antibody complexes can be visualized by fluorescence microscopy. Uninfected cells stain a dull red due to the presence of Evans Blue in the reagents. Summary and Explanation: Influenza A and B viruses are members of the Orthomyxoviridae family. They are large enveloped viruses, about 110 nm in diameter, with hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) projections protruding through the glycoprotein membrane, and containing a segmented, single-stranded RNA (1, 2). Both viruses have a high frequency of mutation and cause periodic epidemics of influenza worldwide, which are particularly severe when mutations have resulted in dramatic shifts in the HA or NA structure and the circulating antibodies in a community of people do not recognize the virus strains (2, 3). Being transferred by aerosolized droplets and fomites, along with an incubation period of 1-4 days helps the rapid spread of this highly contagious virus within communities. Specificity in all influenza types is conferred by antigenic differences in two of the major structural proteins - the internal nucleoprotein (NP) and the matrix protein (M) (1, 3). Influenza is characterized by tracheobronchitis, pharyngitis, myalgia, fever, headache, and malaise (1, 2, 4). Minimum coryza often distinguishes influenza from other viral respiratory illnesses. Children often experience additional symptoms of gastrointestinal pain, vomiting, myositis, otitis media, conjunctivitis, and croup, and are more likely to show symptoms with influenza B virus rather than influenza A virus. In contrast, the more severe illnesses in adults, resulting in hospitalization, are likely to be caused by influenza A. The most significant complication of influenza is pneumonia, occurring most frequently in the elderly, patients with weakened immune systems, or with chronic kidney disease. Less common complications in adults include Reye's syndrome or other CNS involvement, cardiac symptoms, sinusitis, and otitis media. The increase in deaths from pneumonia during "flu season" is assumed to be due to influenza virus and is used to track influenza epidemics and to check the efficacy of influenza vaccines. Since influenza A and B can cause similar symptoms and have similar clinical presentations, all specimens in suspected influenza cases should be tested for both viruses. Identification of the particular virus in useful for epidemiological considerations, because treatment is available for influenza A infections, and to avoid nosocomial spread of the virus. Further, identification of influenza viruses is necessary to differentiate them from other viruses. Mycoplasmas and bacteria can cause similar clinical findings but require different treatment strategies. Amantadine and its analog, rimantadine, prevent up to 90% of influenza A infections (not influenza B) and 100% of illnesses if taken prophylactically (1, 5). They can also reduce the duration of illness if taken within the first 2 days of illness. Identification and differentiation of influenza A or B in cell culture or patient specimens is usually made using reagents containing antibodies specific for influenza A or influenza B (1). Influenza viruses can be isolated in primary rhesus monkey kidney cells (pRMK), Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells, and other cell lines, depending on the particular strain of virus (6, 9). The addition of trypsin to the culture fluid at ~2 mg/mL concentration greatly aids in influenza virus isolation in MDCK cells. Since many influenza strains do not cause definable cytopathology, cultures must be tested by hemagglutination (HA) or hemadsorption (HAd ) with guinea pig or chicken erythrocytes to assess viral growth.

      View All» Brand Family: Chemicon View All» Format: FITC View All» Host: Mouse View All» Storage Conditions: When stored at 2-8° C, the Light Diagnostics Influenza A and B DFA Kit is stable up to the expiration date printed on the label. Do not freeze or expose to elevated temperatures. Discard any remaining reagents after the kit expiration date. During incubation, slides should be protected from light and kept in a humid chamber at the recommended temperature. A marked decrease in fluorescence may indicate conjugate deterioration. A positive control should be tested with each specimen to ensure proper functioning of these reagents and proper staining procedure. If after appropriate analysis there is a decrease in staining intensity, discontinue use of the reagents. Warnings and Precautions: · Sodium azide (NaN3) used as a preservative in the conjugates, PBS/Tween and Mounting Fluid is toxic if ingested. Sodium azide may react with lead or copper plumbing to form highly explosive metal azides (17, 18). Upon disposal, flush with large volumes of water to prevent build-up in plumbing. · Handle all specimens and materials coming in contact with them as potentially infectious and dispose of with proper precautions. Decontaminate with 0.05% sodium hypochlorite (bleach). · Acetone is extremely flammable and harmful if swallowed or inhaled. Keep away from heat, sparks or flame. Avoid breathing vapor. Use adequate ventilation. · Do not mouth-pipette reagents. · Avoid contact with Evans Blue (present in conjugates), as it is a potential carcinogen. If skin contact occurs, flush with large volumes of water. · Mounting Fluid contains a fluorescence enhancer that may be destructive to mucous membranes. Avoid direct skin or mucous membrane contact. If contact occurs, flush with large volumes of water. · Pooling or alteration of any reagent may cause erroneous results. · Do not use reagents beyond expiration date. · Do not substitute reagents from other manufacturers. · Incubation times or temperatures other than those specified may give erroneous results. Any such change must be validated by the user. · Do not allow shell vials or slides to dry at any time during the staining procedure. · When staining multiple samples on a slide, avoid cross contamination between samples.
