block Workshop, 40 hours, max. 2 participantsTo be announced
In this course, students will gain hands-on experience with essential virological techniques used in influenza virus research. All experiments will be performed under biosafety level 2 conditions.
They will learn how to cultivate and infect host cells with influenza viruses and quantify infectious virus particles through plaque assay analyses.
Additionally, students will perform influenza virus vRNP reconstitution assays to quantify the activity of the viral RNA polymerase, providing insights into viral replication mechanisms. They will also employ Western Blot analyses to detect subunits of the viral polymerase and examine their protein expression levels.
