  • Name: Anti-Metapneumovirus Fusion Protein [hMPV24]
  • Research fields: Microbiology
  • Clone: hMPV24
  • Class: Monoclonal
  • Conjugation: Unconjugated
  • Strain: Balb/c
  • Reactivity: Virus
  • Host: Mouse
  • Application: IHC; IF ; WB
  • Description: Monoclonal antibody which can identify human metapneumovirus via immunofluorescent staining and does not cross react to other cell cultures Background and Research Application Anti-hMPV monoclonal antibody which can identify and locate the fusion glycoprotein of human metapneumovirus (hMPV) of both types A and B, within a sample. hMPV is a negative single stranded RNA virus of the paramyxoviridae family and can cause upper and lower respiratory tract infections. Discovered in 2001, there appear to be 4 lineages of the hMPV virus, stemming from sub-groups A and B.Anti-hMPV24 can recognise the fusion protein of all 4 lineages(A1,A2, B1 and B2). Anti-hMPV24 be also used in conjunction with other hMPV antibody clones to detect all strains of the virus. Anti-hMPV24 was created to diagnose hMPV infection in respiratory specimens via immunofluorescence staining with optimal staining of clinical samples with low backgrounds on uninfected specimens.
  • Immunogen: Human MPV strain NCL-145
