Abstract

Influenza A virus H1N1, a respiratory virus transmitted via droplets and responsible for the global pandemic in 2009, belongs to the Orthomyxoviridae family, a single-negative-stranded RNA. It possesses glycoprotein spikes neuraminidase (NA), hemagglutinin (HA), and a matrix protein named M2. The Covid-19 pandemic affected the world population belongs to the respiratory virus category is currently mutating, this can also be observed in the case of H1N1 influenza A virus. Mutations in H1N1 can enhance the viral capacity which can lead to another pandemic. This virus affects children below 5 years, pregnant women, old age people, and immunocompromised individuals due to its high viral capacity. Its early detection is necessary for the patient's recovery time. In this book chapter, we mainly focus on the detection methods for H1N1, from traditional ones to the most advance including biosensors, RT-LAMP, multi-fluorescent PCR.

Keywords: Biosensor; H1N1; Influenza A; Multi-fluorescent PCR; RT-LAMP.
