NA activity can be used to quantify virus. A/Wisconsin/67/2005 was serially diluted in PBS and 50 μl incubated with an equal volume of 20 μM MU-NANA for 1 hour at 37°C. Stop solution was added before reading fluorescence. The signal to background ratio at each concentration is shown. Under these conditions enzyme activity reaches a plateau with > 5 × 105 TCID50 due to limiting substrate.
