New Way to Identify Influenza A Virus Could Pave Way for More Sensitive Tests

Because the influenza A virus is constantly changing, or mutating, it can be difficult to detect, treat, and inoculate against. By finding new ways to target specific parts of the influenza A virus that do not change when the virus mutates, more sensitive tests can be created to detect the influenza A virus more easily.
