  View All» Qty/Pk: 5 mL View All» Product Overview: Intended Use The Light Diagnostics™ SimulFluor® RSV/Flu A Immunofluorescence Assay is intended for use in respiratory specimens such as throat, nasal and nasopharyngeal swabs, throat washes, aspirates, broncho-alveolar lavages from patients with febrile respiratory illness following amplification of virus in cell culture. Negative results do not preclude influenza virus infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or other management decision. Performance characteristic for influenza A were established when influenza A/H3 and A/H1 were the predominant influenza A viruses in circulation. When other influenza A viruses are emerging, performance characteristics may vary. If infection with a novel influenza A virus is suspected based on current clinical and epidemiological screening criteria recommended by public health authorities, specimens should be collected with appropriate infection control precautions for novel virulent influenza viruses and sent to state or local health department for testing. Viral culture should not be attempted in these cases unless a Biosafety Level 3 (BSL 3+) facility is available to receive and culture specimens. For In Vitro Diagnostic Use. Summary and Explanation Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) occupies the genus Pneumovirus in the family Paramyxoviridae. It is a pleomorphic virus ranging from approximately 100 to 300 nm in diameter containing a linear, non-segmented, single-stranded, negative sense RNA. The envelope contains projections on the outer surface composed of two highly antigentic glycoproteins, F and G, and a major structural protein, N, in the nucleocapsid. The F, G, and N structural proteins divide RSV into two major antigenic groups; the "prototype" strains are Long (group A) and CH-18537 (group B) (1-4). RSV causes major epidemics of severe respiratory illness during the winter and spring seasons throughout the world. Because natural immunity to RSV is weak, these epidemics tend to occur every or every other year. RSV can be isolated from nasopharyngeal aspirates, nose or throat swabs, or lung specimens taken within the first few days of illness. The virus grows in human epithelial cells such as HEp2, primary rhesus monkey kidney (RMK), A549, MRC-5, and NCI-H292. Rapid and direct tests on suitable clinical specimens are diagnostic of RSV infections provided that standardized reagent and adequate controls are used. Confirmation by virus isolation is desired wherever possible. Hospitalized RSV-infected infants have been successfully treated with ribavirin, administered as an aerosol. However, this requires specialized care, and is not given routinely (4). Immune globulin is also available for treatment. RSV vaccines have a long history of failure but are still under intense development. Influenza A virus is a member of the family of Orthomyxoviridae. It is a large, enveloped virus, 110 nm in diameter, and containing a segmented, single-stranded RNA, with hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) projections protruding through the glycoprotein membrane (5-7). Influenza A has a high frequency of mutation and cause periodic epidemics of influenza worldwide. Epidemics are particularly severe when the mutations have resulted in dramatic shifts in the HA or NA structure such that circulating antibodies in a community of people who do not recognize the virus strains (6-8). Specificity in influenza viruses is conferred by antigenic differences in two of the major structural proteins, the internal nucleoprotein (NP) and the matrix protein (M) (5-8). Influenza infections are characterized by tracheobronchitis, pharyngitis, myalgia, fever, headache, and malaise (5,6,9). Minimal coryza often distinguishes influenza from other viral respiratory illnesses. It is highly contagious among adults, being spread by aerosolized droplets and fomites. As with RSV, an incubation period of 1 to 4 days helps the virus spread rapidly within communities and within hospital wards. The most significant complication of influenza is pneumonia, which occurs by itself or may be mixed with bacterial pneumonia. Pneumonia, occurs most frequently in the elderly, in patients with weakened immune systems, or in patients with underlying diabetes, heart or lung disease, or chronic kidney disease. Children are more likely to experience additional symptoms of gastrointestinal pain, vomiting, myositis, otitis media, conjunctivitis, and croup. The increase in deaths from pneumonia during "flu season" is assumed to be due to influenza virus and is used to track influenza epidemics and to check the efficacy of influenza vaccines. Less common complications in adults include Reye's syndrome or other CNS involvement, cardiac symptoms, sinusitis, and otitis media. Amantadine and its analog, rimantadine, are effective in preventing up to 90% of influenza A infections and 100% of illnesses if taken prophylactically (5,10). They are also effective therapeutically by reducing the duration of illness if taken within the first 2 days of illness. Ribavirin may be effective in treating influenza A when administered by an aerosol route. Vaccines against influenza A constitute a major public health effort as new strains are identified. Current influenza vaccines generally have an efficacy rate of 70-90% (5,7). Influenza viruses can be grown in RMK, MDCK (Madin-Darby canine kidney), and occasionally other cell lines, depending on the particular strain of virus (11-13). Trypsin added to the culture fluid at ~2 µg/mL concentration greatly aids in influenza virus isolation in MDCK cells. Both standard culture and shell vials may be used. Direct tests, including immunofluorescence, (FA) and enzyme immunoassays (EIA) (11,14-17). Adequate specimens include nasal washes, throat swabs, and broncholaveolar lavages. Any direct test with standardized reagents is diagnostic of influenza infection, especially if confirmed by virus isolation. Test Principle Light Diagnostics™ SimulFluor® RSV/Flu A Immunofluorescence Assay utilizes a single reagent for the simultaneous detection and identification of RSV and influenza A. The primary component, specific for RSV, will bind to RSV F and G antigens in RSV-infected cells. The secondary component, specific for influenza A, will bind to influenza A nucleoprotein in influenza A-infected cells. Unbound reagent is removed by rinsing with phosphate buffered saline (PBS). The antigen-antibody complex can be visualized by fluorescence microscopy. The RSV antigen-antibody complex will exhibit an apple-green fluorescence and the influenza A antigen-antibody complex will appear yellow-gold. Uninfected cells stain a dull red due to the presence of Evans blue in the reagent. View All» Key Applications: Immunofluorescence View All» Usage Statement:
