H5 Avian Flu Rapid Test – Breakthrough! 🚨 Our advanced rapid antigen test (RAT) for H5 hemagglutinin shows strong performance in initial human nasal sample testing! ✅ 🔬 Key results: • Fairly sensitive: LOD <0.5ng • Human NP matrix detection: Clear at 2ng • Outperforms existing poultry-focused RATs • Less affected by human nasal sample variability While the 2ng LOD is lower than some nucleoprotein tests, it remains highly respectable when tested in a real sample matrix! A big step toward better human-compatible H5 detection. Tested with Astrakhan/2020, a good surrogate for D1.1 (USA) and likely B3.13, both Clade 2.3.4.4b strains🦠🔍 Test performance evaluated by @Nucleocapsoid. @RickABright @michaelmina_lab #H5N1 #AvianFlu #RapidTesting #Biotech #Diagnostics
