A reassortant H9N2 influenza virus containing 2009 pandemic H1N1 internal-protein genes acquired enhanced pig-to-pig transmission after serial passages in swine [PDF]
Avian H9N2 and 2009 pandemic H1N1 (pH1N1) influenza viruses can infect pigs and humans, raising the concern that H9N2: pH1N1 reassortant viruses could emerge.

A chimeric thermostable M2e and H3 stalk-based universal influenza A virus vaccine
We developed a new chimeric M2e and H3 hemagglutinin (HA) stalk protein vaccine (M2e-H3 stalk) by genetic engineering of modified H3 stalk domain conjugated with conserved M2e epitopes to overcome the drawbacks of low efficacy by monomeric domain-based ...

Genetic and biological characterisation of an avian-like H1N2 swine influenza virus generated by reassortment of circulating avian-like H1N1 and H3N2 subtypes in Denmark [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The influenza A virus subtypes H1N1, H1N2 and H3N2 are the most prevalent subtypes in swine. In 2003, a reassorted H1N2 swine influenza virus (SIV) subtype appeared and became prevalent in Denmark.

Electrochemical Breath Sensors in Medical Diagnostics: Emerging Trends and Future Directions
Electrochemical breath sensors (EBSs) are emerging as powerful tools for noninvasive health diagnostics. This perspective highlights recent advances in EBS technologies, explores their potential in mental health monitoring via gut‐derived volatile organic compounds, and outlines future directions for achieving sensitive, selective, and clinically ...

Direct Detection of Viruses Using Antibody‐Modified Gold Nanorods
Gold nanorods functionalized with pathogen‐specific antibodies can be used for the confirmatory detection of viruses via dynamic light scattering–based analysis of particle sizes. ABSTRACT Seasonal and sporadic viral infections put enormous burdens on global health and society. Although polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and other molecular approaches can

Mapping the phosphoproteome of influenza A and B viruses by mass spectrometry [PDF]
Protein phosphorylation is a common post-translational modification in eukaryotic cells and has a wide range of functional effects. Here, we used mass spectrometry to search for phosphorylated residues in all the proteins of influenza A and B viruses ...
