Outline of Final Research Achievements |
H5N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses have become endemic in birds in Southeast Aria and Egypt. In particular, Egypt has a substantially higher prevalence of H5N1 viruses than any other country, with collateral human infection. In this study, we developed a novel immunochromatographic strip test to detect influenza virus receptor binding specificity. Using the easy-to-use detection system, we surveyed the H5N1 virus dissemination and evolutionary dynamics in the H5N1 endemic areas. The results showed that a novel H5N1 virus variant with enhanced infectivity toward humans had emerged in Egypt and is now dominant in the country.
