In-vitro process for quick determination of the status of an infection with an influenza virus type
The novel test system can discriminate T cell immunity induced by an acute encounter of influenza viruses from lasting T cell immunity after earlier infections or preceding vaccinations and may help to guide antiviral therapy. The test system can be performed out of whole blood, following a multi-dimensional T cell immunomonitoring of cytokine profiles after specific antigen stimulation. The processing time is only 8 hours.
