Influenzavirus A qRT-PCR Detection Kit is designed to detect influenzavirus A specific RNA sequences in both human and animal (including avian) samples. The purified viral genetic material is amplified by real-time RT-PCR and detected with influenzavirus A specific probes labeled with the FAM fluorescent dye. Virus identification is based on two highly conserved regions in segment 7 of the virus encoding M1, M2 proteins, and one region in segment 3 encoding the PA protein that is part of the RNA polymerase complex. In addition, the kit includes an internal control (primers, probe labeled with HEX dye, exogenous fragment of nucleic acid – Internal Control), which allows for simultaneous verification of RNA isolation and PCR inhibition procedures.
