Determination of influenza A virus titer from mouse lung tissues
... Influenza A virus is a negative-strand segmented RNA virus with eight segments in its genome. Antigenically distinct viral subtypes are defined by the hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) major viral surface proteins which are the most important targets for antibodymediated protection from infe ...
