Title:
METHOD OF DETERMINING RESISTANCE TO INFLUENZA VIRUS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2015/025825
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
 Provided is a method of providing an effective means as a countermeasure for handling a pandemic of an influenza virus. The resistance to a type-A influenza virus is determined using, as an indicator, the presence or otherwise of antibodies using the VH1-69 gene in a biological sample originating from a subject.
