YAN Ju-ying, etc.,al. Pathogenicity and Molecular Characterization of the H5N1 Influenza Virus Isolated from the First Human Case in Zhejiang Province. Virologica Sinica
In order to confirm the etiology of the first suspected human case of the highly-pathogenic avian influenza virus and to perform the pathogenicity studies, a tracheal aspirate specimen was tested by RT-PCR, Real-time PCR and virus isolation. In addition, the HI (hemagglutination-inhibition) antibody in serum samples was assayed. The results showed that RNA extracted from the tracheal aspirate specimen was positive for H5N1 avian influenza virus and influenza virus type A. The H5N1 avian influenza virus was ...
