Abstract:
H1N1 influenza A spread around the world in 2009.There were lots of patients in China too.We did this research to know the epidemiological feature and transmission route and strengthen the prevention and control measure of the influenza.Methods:We collected the nasopharyngeal swab and serum samples of 56 patients who had flu symptom from the infectious disease department of 1st hospital of Jilin University from October in 2009 to December in 2009.The specific antibody of the serum samples were detected by the blood clots suppression method and the H 1N1 RNA of the nasopharyngeal swab was detected by the Nest-RT-PCR assay.Results:The results of nucleic acid test showed that 21(37.5%) and 16(27.8%) samples were found NP and M of influenza A positive respectively and only 2 ( 3.6%) were found H1N1 of influenza A positive.The results of the blood clots suppression method showed that the serum samples of 27 patients (48.2%) could suppress the red blood cells blot of H 1N1 influenza A specifically and all the antibody titer was more than 1∶320.The antibody titer was more than 1∶5 120 in 8 of them.There′s significant difference of the serum antibody titer between the recovery phase and the acute phase.The specific H1N1 influenza A antibody of 27 (48.2%) serum samples in the recovery phase were positive and it was much higher than the result of nucleic acid test .Conclusion:The nucleic acid could be detected in the acute phase and the serum antibody detection could be done in the later stage .Using both the assays could increase the positive rate of H 1N1 influenza.
