Flu Vaccinated Serum
Powered by BiozAbout:Flu Vaccinated Serum - human serum from donors with confirmed influenza vaccination history, processed within 24 hours. Ideal for hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) titer studies, vaccine platform comparison, and universal flu vaccine research targeting the conserved HA stalk domain. Stratification by vaccine type, strain formulation, and season.
About Flu Vaccinated Serum
Flu Vaccinated Serum for Influenza Vaccine Immunogenicity Research
Our Flu Vaccinated Serum is sourced from IRB-consented donors with a confirmed seasonal influenza vaccination history. Each sample is processed and frozen within 24 hours of collection to preserve circulating hemagglutinin-specific antibodies for downstream vaccine immunogenicity research.
Flu Vaccination Biology and Why Serum
- Influenza vaccines – inactivated, live-attenuated, and recombinant platforms – elicit antibody responses primarily targeting the hemagglutinin (HA) surface protein, with hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) titer serving as the gold-standard correlate of protection; serum is the validated matrix for HAI and microneutralization assays.
- Continuous antigenic drift in circulating influenza strains requires annual reformulation of vaccines, making strain-matched versus mismatched response data a key research variable each season.
- Growing interest in universal influenza vaccines targeting the conserved HA stalk domain has increased demand for donor serum that can distinguish strain-specific head-domain responses from broader stalk-directed immunity.
- Repeat annual vaccination history can shape subsequent responses through phenomena such as original antigenic sin, making vaccination history across multiple seasons a relevant donor variable.
- Serum is widely used for cytokine and inflammatory marker panels alongside antibody titers in vaccine reactogenicity and immunogenicity studies.

Where can I find your complete catalog?
You can find our full product catalog here.
How long can samples be stored?
Storage depends on sample type but often cryopreserved samples stored in liquid nitrogen can be stored for years.
What customization options are available?
Extensive customization is available. To discuss your project request a quote or email us at learnmore@sanguinebio.com.
Do you offer prospective collections?
Sanguine offers flexible prospective collection services tailored to fit your research. For more information and to request a quote, please see: our prospective biospecimen collection services page.
What is the turnaround time for custom collections?
Timelines depend on condition, sample type, and I/E criteria but we often start collection within 2 weeks of signed agreement.
Do you have samples in stock?
YES - we have in-stock inventory. You can also email us at learnmore@sanguinebio.com as we continually get new samples in our inventory.
What does unique donor mean?
Each sample from a different individual - Unique donor means each sample comes from a different person, ensuring biological diversity in your study.
Are samples collected under IRB-approved protocols?
YES - "IRB-approved collection protocols" and IRB approval documentation available upon request. Sanguine utilizes two internationally-recognized IRBs (Advarra and WCG IRB) for review and approval.
