RIEMS Influenza A Typing assay-
On the way to version
RITA2.0
Kareem E. Hassan, Timm Harder
20th June, 2019
Riems influenza A typing (RITA)
RITA version 2
32 RT-qPCRs, 14 HA, 9 NA subtypes
inclusion of new variants and new emerging IAVs,
inclusion of new subtypes (H14, H15),
improved sensitivity and specificity avoiding current
cross reactivity of H1/H6/H8, H2/H5, H7/H10/H15,
new array format (24 wells) for more cost-effective
performance,
new chemistry (lyophilized ingredients, ready-to-use
plates).
En route to RITA 2.0
Modification and development of new oligos for
Past problems with specificity
* - Cross reactivity in RITA 1.0; about 6-12 higher Cq values compared
to specific target
Influenza A variability
HA similarities
NA similarities
Identifying problems in RITA

Sequence repositories,
AIV, also other hosts,
geographic range?
Recently emerging
mutants
Inclusivity versus
specificity
Stages of improving RITA
Designing new primers
and probes for all HA
including new H14 and
H15 and NA
Evaluation of new RT-
qPCR chemistry
In silico planning
Evaluation of each set
of primers and probe
Cross reactivity?
Wet lab work
Full evaluation of as many as possible different
viruses with respect to temporal and geographical
origin, clade and pathogenicity;
