IVX-A12 induced GMTs in hMPV-A nAbs of approximately 1,600 assay units/mL compared to approximately 400 assay units/mL for placebo at Day 28. IVX-A12 induced GMTs in hMPV-B nAbs of approximately ...

Respiratory viruses, including respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), human metapneumovirus (HMPV), and human parainfluenza ... incubated with live viruses and tested for neutralization by plaque assay ...

[15] Samples were analyzed in triplicate in three independent PCR assays. The viruses hMPV, PIV-1, PIV-2 and PIV-3 were quantified by LightMix assays (TIB MOLBIOL, Berlin, Germany). The virus ...

Researchers have developed an automated version of the viral plaque assay, the gold-standard method for detecting and quantifying viruses. Researchers have developed an automated version of the ...

Wells with a cytopathic effect, consisting of rounded cells and focal plaques, were tested for the presence of human metapneumovirus by RT-PCR. Cultures without a cytopathic effect were passaged ...

Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) technology remains the cornerstone of HMPV diagnostics. Real-time PCR assays can detect and quantify viral RNA, offering high sensitivity and specificity.

In this review, we have discussed the different approaches currently used for plaque assays as applied to fastidious bacteria. First described for rickettsiae, the plaque assay methods have been ...

Leading diagnostic test solutions provider Quidel Corporation (QDEL) has won the European CE Mark for its new virus test dubbed the “Quidel Molecular RSV + hMPV Assay” designed for the ...

This was much faster than the traditional plaque assay, which requires 48 hours of incubation for this virus. They also applied the automated approach to herpes simplex virus type-1 and ...
