Measles Virus (Premium) Antigen BA102VS-S

kit
Overview
The native Measles Virus Antigen Premium (BA102VS-S) is produced by cultivation of measles virus (strain Edmonston) in Vero cells and a subsequent concentration of the culture supernatant by ultra-filtration and ultra-centrifugation. The resulting antigen preparation consists of a high concentration of virus and viral components that enable very sensitive and specific detection of IgG and IgM antibodies.

Structure and strains
The measles virus genome is typically 15,894-nucleotides long and encodes eight proteins. The WHO currently recognizes 8 clades of measles (A-H). Subtypes are designed with numerals-A1, D2 etc. Currently, 23 subtypes are recognized. The 450 nucleotides that code for the C-terminal 150 amino acids of N are the minimum amount of sequence data required for genotyping a measles virus isolate.

Despite the variety of measles genotypes, there is only one measles serotype. Antibodies to measles bind to the hemagglutinin protein. Thus, antibodies against one genotype (such as the vaccine strain) protect against all other genotypes.

Detection and diagnosis
Demonstration of IgM antibodies is commonly used as evidence for an acute infection and provides positive test results early on with the onset of symptoms. The demonstration of IgG antibodies serves primarily for immune status and vaccination control as well as for confirmation of Measles Virus infections. The detection of IgG antibodies in CSF samples is particularly recommended in cases of suspected encephalitis and multiple sclerosis.
