products full name :
NATIVE DENGUE VIRUS TYPE 2
products short name :
DENGUE VIRUS TYPE 2
form :
Inactivated Pathogen. Inactivated, highly purified preparation of Dengue virus type 2 particles - liquid.
concentration :
Total protein concentration 1.0 mg/ml.
storage stability :
Store at -70 degree C. Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended. This product should be stored undiluted. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the protein. Shelf Life: 18 months from date of despatch.
tested application :
ELISA (EIA)
other info1 :
Source: Dengue virus type 2 strain 16681 cultured in Vero cells. Preparation: Dengue virus particles are concentrated from tissue culture supernatant by precipitation and ultracentrifugation. Antigen is purified by sucrose density gradient centrifugation. Virus particles are separated from the sucrose containing buffer by ultracentrifugation before resuspension in Medium 199. The antigen preparation is inactivated by room temperature incubation with formaldehyde. The formaldehyde is neutralised by the addition of sodium bisulphite.
other info2 :
Buffer Solution: Medium 199. Activity: This product has been rendered inactive by standard procedures. However this material should still be handled as infectious and should be disposed of appropriately. Target Species: Viral
products description :
Native Dengue Virus Type 2 is a preparation of viral particles concentrated from tissue culture supernatant. Dengue Virus Type 2 is one of four antigenically distinct yet closely related viral serotypes belonging to the family Flaviviridae known to cause Dengue fever in humans. Dengue infection is a major cause of morbidity in tropical and subtropical regions. It is a mosquito borne viral infection that may be asymptomatic or may cause undifferentiated fever, dengue fever, dengue haemorrhagic fever or dengue shock syndrome. Currently, there is no vaccine or effective antiviral drugs to treat the infection.
