Related Product Information for INFLUENZA B ANTIGEN antigen
This product is a native influenza B antigen. Influenza is an acute infection of the respiratory tract caused by the Influenza virus, of which there are several different types. Influenza B is only known to infect humans and seals. Influenza infection in humans causes chills, fever, pharyngitis, muscle pain, headaches, coughing and weakness. The virus is transmitted through the air by coughs or sneezes or through saliva, nasal secretions, faeces and blood. Infection may occur through direct contact with infected bodily fluid or contaminated surfaces. Influenza B viruses mutate slower than Influenza A, but fast enough that lasting immunity is not possible. The slower mutation rate and limited host range makes Influenza B less like to cause pandemics than Influenza A.

Product Notes
The INFLUENZA B ANTIGEN (Catalog #AAA239139) is an Antigen and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's INFLUENZA B ANTIGEN can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EIA). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the INFLUENZA B ANTIGEN for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "INFLUENZA B ANTIGEN, Antigen" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
