BEI Resources is pleased to offer information regarding new reagents and featured organisms in the collection. Please see below for recent announcments. If you would like more information about one or more of these products, please contact our Technical Services Department.
Featured Organism: NR-63, Venezuelan Equine Encephalitis Virus, TC-83
 Venezuelan Equine Encephalitis Virus (VEEV) is a positive-sense single-stranded RNA virus in the Alphavirus genus of the Togaviridae family. It can cause severe febrile illness and encephalitis in both humans and livestock, and is classified in the NIAID Category A, B, and C Priority Pathogens as a Category B Biological Disease.
We are offering this attenuated strain of VEEV (NR-63) in addition to other strains such as: Trinidad (NR-118), 3880 (NR-119), Mena II (NR-120), and Trinidad Donkey (NR-332). Additionally, we have numerous reagents available in our catalog for your VEEV research, including: antisera, monoclonal antibodies, and nucleic acids. Search the catalog now for a complete listing of reagents available.
Featured DNA: NR-3071, Genomic DNA from Monkeypox Virus, WRAIR 7-61
 Monkeypox is a member of the Orthopoxvirus Genus in the Poxviridae Family. It is an important pathogen and has the highest profile in the genus since the eradication of Variola (Smallpox) in the 1970’s. We have Genomic DNA available from the WRAIR 7-61 strain. This preparation is free from residual virus, allowing molecular work at a reduced biosafety level.
Also please see our Highlights page for a new Monkeypox Virus Quantitative Real-Time PCR Assay that is now available (NR-9531).
