Description

Technical Field

[0002] Influenza is an acute respiratory infectious disease caused by influenza virus, and its main mode of transmission is airborne droplets. According to the difference in nucleoprotein antigenicity, influenza virus is divided into type A, type B, type C and type D. Influenza B virus is a single-stranded RNA virus belonging to the family of Orthomyxoviridae. It is divided into Victoria and Yamagata strains according to the differences in antigenicity and gene specificity. It is the pathogen of influenza B, which is characterized by rapid onset, chills and fever. The body temperature rises to a peak of 39-40℃ or even higher within a few hours to 24 hours; accompanied by headache, body aches, fatigue, and loss of appetite; respiratory symptoms are mild, dry throat and sore throat, dry cough, and diarrhea may occur; facial flushing, conjunctival hyperemia, pharyngeal hyperemia, and follicles on the soft palate.

[0003] Influenza B virus is an enveloped single-stranded negative-sense RNA virus. The virus particles are spherical, filamentous or pleomorphic, and are structurally divided into three layers. The outermost layer is composed of a double layer of lipids and three glycoproteins derived from the virus host cell: hemagglutinin (HA), neuraminidase (NA) and matrix protein 2 (M2); the middle layer is a spherical protein shell formed by matrix protein 1 (M1); the core is a nucleocapsid composed of nucleoprotein (NP), three polymerase proteins Basic polymerase 1 (PB1), Basic polymerase 2 (PB2) and Acidic protein (PA) and viral RNA. The viral genome consists of 8 segments and encodes a total of 11 proteins.

[0004] There are many methods for detecting influenza B virus, mainly including virus culture, serological detection and molecular biological detection. Among them, virus culture and serological detection are time-consuming, low in sensitivity, high in culture requirements and prone to false negatives.
