title: Simple detection of mumps virus neuraminidase and anti-neuraminidase with the lectin neuraminidase test.
abstract: The lectin neuraminidase (LN) test is based on specific interaction between Arachis lectin and the glycoprotein receptors treated with the neuraminidase (NA) of myxoviruses. The test is suitable for detection of mumps virus NA and of corresponding antibodies and is more sensitive than the conventional neuraminidase inhibition test.
