What does it do?

This component is an antigen that is purified by inactivating the influenza A virus. It is used in vaccines to help the immune system recognize and respond to the virus. It is primarily used for the purpose of preventing influenza infection.

When this antigen is injected into the body, immune cells recognize it and produce antibodies. These formed antibodies respond quickly when the actual influenza virus invades, preventing infection. Thus, it plays a role in building immunity against the influenza A virus.

Approved uses differ by product. Check each product's information for its actual use.

Good to know

This component is made from inactivated viruses rather than live viruses, resulting in a high level of safety. Unlike split vaccines, it includes the whole virus antigen to induce an immune response. It is a vaccine tailored to seasonal epidemic strains using specific virus strains.
