Influenza A Viral Load Quantitative Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the Influenza A Viral Load Quantitative Test at a cost of AED 1020.0. This test is designed to measure the amount of Influenza A virus in a patient’s respiratory sample.
Test Details
The Influenza A Viral Load Quantitative Test uses a technique called real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to detect and quantify the viral RNA. The patient’s respiratory sample, such as a nasal swab or throat swab, is collected and the viral RNA is extracted. It is then converted into complementary DNA (cDNA) and amplified using PCR. This allows for the detection and quantification of the viral load.
Components and Sample Condition
The test requires deep nostrils (nasal swab), nasopharynx (nasopharyngeal swab), nasopharyngeal aspirate, throat, or bronchial aspirate as the sample condition.
Report Delivery
The test results are typically delivered within 3 working days via email (36 hours) or over the phone (24 hours).
Test Type and Department
The Influenza A Viral Load Quantitative Test is a viral test performed in our Genetics department.
Pre Test Information
Prior to the test, patients are required to sign a Consent document and bring any relevant clinical history related to Influenza A infection.
Importance of the Test
The Influenza A Viral Load Quantitative Test is useful in diagnosing and monitoring the progression of Influenza A infection. The numerical value obtained from the test represents the amount of Influenza A virus present in the patient’s sample. This information can assist healthcare providers in making clinical decisions.
Please note that the Influenza A Viral Load Quantitative Test is not commonly available in all healthcare settings and is typically ordered by physicians for patients suspected of having Influenza A infection.

The Influenza A Viral Load Quantitative Test is a laboratory test used to measure the amount of Influenza A virus in a patient’s respiratory sample, such as a nasal swab or throat swab. The test uses a technique called real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to detect and quantify the viral RNA. During the test, the viral RNA is extracted from the patient’s sample and then converted into complementary DNA (cDNA). This cDNA is then amplified using PCR, which allows for the detection and quantification of the viral load. The results of the test provide a numerical value representing the amount of Influenza A virus present in the patient’s sample. This viral load measurement can be helpful in diagnosing and monitoring the progression of Influenza A infection. The Influenza A Viral Load Quantitative Test is typically performed in specialized laboratories and is not commonly available in all healthcare settings. It is usually ordered by healthcare providers for patients who are suspected to have Influenza A infection and may require more specific information about the viral load for clinical decision-making. |
