Broad cross-reactive epitopes of the H5N1 influenza virus identified by murine antibodies against the A/Vietnam/1194/2004 hemagglutinin.

Broad cross-reactive epitopes of the H5N1 influenza virus identified by murine antibodies against the A/Vietnam/1194/2004 hemagglutinin.

There is an urgent need for a rapid diagnostic system to detect the H5 subtype of the influenza A virus. We previously developed monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against the H5 hemagglutinin (HA) for use in a rapid diagnostic kit. In this study, we determined the epitopes of the anti-H5 HA murine mAbs O...
