Description

Timothy Vincent and co-authors validate a faster, more objective flu antibody test for judging new vaccines, in this 2024 paper. The classic inhibition test struggles with some modern flu strains and leans on human reading. Their version uses lab-made virus-like particles as the target, human red blood cells, a drug treatment step, and a machine reader. Four particle strains and egg-grown viruses were tested with dozens of serum samples, each run many times.

The test proved precise within and across runs, with low bias and a clean dose response. It reacted only to matching strains and caught antibodies from a low starting dilution. Results matched a qualified live-virus test well, and single testing equaled duplicate testing. The authors endorse it for vaccine trials.
