Scientific Background
Influenza A subtype H7 (H7Nx) has caused sporadic human infections with high morbidity, most notably H7N9 outbreaks in China beginning in 2013. H7 hemagglutinin (HA) can bind both α2-3-linked (avian-type) and α2-6-linked (human-type) sialic acid receptors in some strains, raising concern about pandemic potential. H7 pseudovirus tools enable safe evaluation of H7-specific neutralizing antibodies and vaccine candidates without live H7 virus containment requirements.
Product Description
Influenza
This Influenza H7 Pseudovirus presents the H7 hemagglutinin (HA) surface protein on a pseudovirus scaffold for viral entry and antibody neutralization studies. Supplied as sufficient material for one 96-well plate. Contact IBT Bioservices or BioHippo for reporter format and additional specification details.

Safety & Handling
Specific strain information is available upon request. Contact IBT Bioservices or BioHippo support for lot-specific certificate of analysis details.
H5 and H7 are distinct hemagglutinin subtypes with different receptor binding specificities and antigenicity. Antibodies against H5 do not generally cross-neutralize H7 — subtype-specific pseudoviruses are required for accurate evaluation of subtype-specific antibodies and vaccines.
Store at -80°C immediately upon receipt. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
