Swine Flu H1na Virus
Product Code : JC-BE-5226
The Swine Flu H1na Virus model by Jaincolab is an enlarged biology teaching model depicting the H1N1 subtype of influenza A virus, commonly known as swine flu. Designed for microbiology and virology laboratories, this H1N1 virus teaching model presents the structural features that define this influenza subtype.
Like other influenza A viruses, the H1N1 subtype is an enveloped virus carrying two key surface glycoproteins, hemagglutinin (H) and neuraminidase (N), whose specific types give the subtype its name. The segmented, single-stranded RNA genome inside the virion allows influenza viruses to undergo genetic reassortment when two different strains infect the same host cell, a process that contributed to the emergence of the pandemic H1N1 strain, which was found to carry a combination of gene segments from swine, avian and human influenza viruses. This Jaincolab biology equipment model presents this structure enlarged for classroom study, complementing the general study of influenza virus biology.
