A second generation universal microarray for subtyping influenza a virus

The microchip for influenza A subtyping working on the “one spot-one subtype” principle was developed. Each spot contains a set of oligonucleotide probes specific for particular subtypes of hemagglutinin, neuraminidase and matrix protein (influenza A marker). Reliability of the proposed chip is the...

Description
Summary:The microchip for influenza A subtyping working on the “one spot-one subtype” principle was developed. Each spot contains a set of oligonucleotide probes specific for particular subtypes of hemagglutinin, neuraminidase and matrix protein (influenza A marker). Reliability of the proposed chip is the same as for the full-size microchip for separate hemagglutinin and neuraminidase typing which was created in our group earlier. The image was visualized by labeling the analyzed nucleic acid by either fluorescent dye or biotin with the following fixation in streptavidin-gold nanoparticles and development by silver precipitation. In the second case, the image was analyzed using an ordinary scanner that essentially simplifies influenza A subtyping.
