Influenza B Virus Inactivated Virus (CAT#: VLP-066YF)

Datasheet
Influenza B virus is produced by chicken embryo and formulated with splited virus particles, incomplete virus structure. The virus particles have been chemically modified to render them non-infectious and refrigerator stable. The inactivation was verified in a standard microbiological growth protocol. Influenza B virus antigen can be used in the development of Influenza B diagnostics and in vaccine development and R&D.

  • Virus Overview
  • Influenza B virus is known only to infect humans and seals.This limited host range is apparently responsible for the lack of associated influenza pandemics in contrast with those caused by the morphologically similar influenza A virus as both mutate by both antigenic drift and reassortment. There are two known circulating lineages of Influenza B virus based on the antigenic properties of the surface glycoprotein hemagglutinin. The lineages are termed B/Yamagata/16/88-like and B/Victoria/2/87-like viruses.
