Description
CDC, Influenza A/H5 Subtyping Kit, Model/Catalog Number: FluIVD03-11
The H5b component may fail to amplify, resulting in an inconclusive result.
The CDC notified customers via letter on 04/26/2024. Customers were instructed to halt use of the H5b component when testing a specimen with the CDC Influenza A/H5 subtyping kit, lot 220307. Proceed with testing with the InfA, H5a, and RP targets and do not delay resulting. If a specimen is positive for InfA and H5a, that is considered a presumptive H5 positive and should be sent to CDC immediately. Please reach out to [email protected] for further shipping guidance. If a specimen is positive for InfA and negative for H5a and has not been tested with the Influenza A Subtyping kit, proceed to testing the specimen with the Influenza A Subtyping kit. If a specimen is negative for all viral targets but positive for RP, that specimen is considered negative for Influenza A, H5. Please reach out to [email protected] with any inconclusive results.
