Type‐ and Subtype‐Specific RT‐PCR Assays for Avian Influenza A Viruses (AIV)
1 May 2000
Abstract excerpt
Reverse transcriptase (RT) PCR assays have been developed to improve the diagnosis of avian influenza A. RT-PCR using primers complementary to a conserved region of the matrix protein was assessed as being suitable for the detection of influenza A virus RNA from poultry as well as from pigs, horses and humans, regardless of the haemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) subtype. Therefore, this RT-PCR is a...
