Abstract excerpt
Adequate treatment of influenza requires identification of viral type as well as detection of mutation(s) conferring drug resistance. Reverse hybridization-based line probe assays (LiPA) can be performed using several probes immobilized on nitrocellulose, strips enabling LiPA to determine simultaneously viral subtypes and detect the presence or absence of the H274Y mutation, which confers oseltamivir resistance...
