Influenza B Antibody (1161): sc-101408

Influenza B Antibody (1161) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2b antibody that detects Influenza B protein by immunofluorescence (IF). Influenza B is a significant member of the Orthomyxoviridae family, known for causing seasonal epidemics and severe respiratory illnesses. Influenza B protein plays a crucial role in the viral life cycle, particularly in the assembly and release of viral particles from infected cells. Understanding Influenza B structure is essential, as Influenza B consists of a segmented RNA genome encased in a lipid bilayer, studded with glycoproteins such as hemagglutinin and neuraminidase. These glycoproteins are vital for viral attachment and host cell penetration, making them key targets for therapeutic interventions and vaccine development. Anti-Influenza B antibody (1161) serves as an invaluable tool for researchers studying viral infection dynamics, enabling visualization of viral proteins within infected cells and contributing to a deeper understanding of pathogenic mechanisms.

The preferred Influenza B antibody is Influenza B Antibody (1C2): sc-101353.
