Dilutions of Influenza Type B (ATCC VR-1535) virus culture supernatant (cultured on MDCK cells) were assayed at different temperatures and signal/noise (S/N) ratio calculated using uninfected MDCK cell supernatant (noise). The lower limit of detection (S/N = 2) is at least 30-fold lower with the chemiluminescent NA-Star™ assay, and S/N is approximately 50-fold higher with NA-Star assay. The dynamic range of detection with NA-Star assay with virus samples is three orders of magnitude.
