Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) Virus

Tick-borne encephalitis Virus is a member of the genus of Flaviviruses and related with other Flaviviruses such as Dengue, Zika or the Hepatitis C Virus. The virus is transmitted via tick bite and can cause a severe encephalitis in humans.

Virion\Serion’s TBE Virus Envelope protein E (Far Eastern subtype, strain Sofjin) is recombinantly produced in insect cells and highly purified by strep-tag affinity chromatography, which guarantees high quality and availability.

Together with our Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) Virus Antigen - Premium (strain Moscow B-4), we have developed two excellent antigens for TBEV assay development. Virion\Serion’s native Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) Virus Antigen - Premium is cultured in Vero cells and purified by size exclusion chromatography.

Both antigens are suitable for the detection of IgG and IgM antibodies against TBE.
