Technology Development Opportunity: Universal Influenza Virus Probes for Enrichment of Influenza Viral Sequences

Technology Development Opportunity:

Universal Influenza Virus Probes for Enrichment of Influenza Viral Sequences

To increase the sensitivity of sequence-based, universal detection of all influenza viruses, this set of influenza virus enrichment probes contains a unique set of 46,953 biotin-labeled, RNA proves, each 12- base-pairs long. These can be used to enrich for influenza sequences without prior knowledge of type or subtype. The probe set can also capture and enrich influenza viral sequences selectively and notably, which could be a valuable tool to investigate influenza sequences in clinical samples with degraded nucleotides or containing low amounts of influenza.
