Assessing the effect of beta-propiolactone inactivation on the antigenicity and immunogenicity of cluster 2.1 duck Tembusu virus by Kanana Rungprasert, Wikanda Tunterek, Phornphisut Areeraksakul, Duangduean Prakairungnamthip, Chalida Sri-in, Navapon Techakriengkrai, Wijit Banlunara, Christine A. Jansen, Teerawut Nedumpun, Aunyaratana Thontiravong

“…Overall, these findings suggest that a 1:4000 dilution of BPL with 24 h of incubation is the optimal condition for complete inactivation of cluster 2.1 DTMUV without significant loss of antigenicity and immunogenicity. This protocol can serve as a guideline for efficient cluster 2.1 DTMUV inactivation, which is valuable for vaccine and immunoassay development.…”
