Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Influenza Virus Neuraminidase Assay (NA Assay)
Description:  For influenza NA assays, MDCK cells were plated in Phenol Red-free DMEM (Gibco) supplemented with 2 mM L-Glutamine, 1% sodium pyruvate (Cellgro, Manassas, Va.) and 0.1% BSA at cell densities of 1.8×104 cells/well in 384-well format. Compounds were added to the cells 2 hours pre-infection. Infections were performed at MOI 0.005 and the plates were incubated at 37° C., 5% CO2 for 48 hours. Following incubation, neuraminidase activity was evaluated with the NA assay kit (ThermoFisher, Carlsbad, Calif.). For cell toxicity measurement, CellTiter-Glo (Promega, Madison, Wis.) was added to treated cells according to manufacturer's instructions.
