A new adenovirus specific nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method is described. It
was designed inside the hexon protein gene of the adenovirus genome, and was able to …

To develop and evaluate an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for detecting
adenovirus antigens in which a group-specific monoclonal antibody to the adenovirus hexon …

A commercial monoclonal antibody-based enzyme immunoassay (Adenoscreen; Mercia
Diagnostics Ltd., Guildford, United Kingdom) for the detection of adenovirus types 40 and 41 …

The usefulness of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method for diagnosing adenovirus
infections was investigated. Several primers, including primers specific for the hexon-coding …

Summary We report on a 1,551-base-pair-long DNA sequence, encoding the variable
region and parts of the flanking conserved regions of the human adenovirus type 8 (AV8) …

In addition to tests for the group-specific hexon antigen of adenoviruses, adenoviruses can
be detected in clinical specimens by hybridization assays utilizing the widely shared base …

Adenoviruses are ubiquitous lytic DNA viruses that infect most animal species. There are 47
known adenovirus serotypes [Hierholzer et al., 19881 which fall into six subgenera (A to F) …

A monoclonal antibody-based enzyme immunoassay (EIA) was developed for direct
detection of enteric adenoviruses in stool specimens from individuals with gastroenteritis …

Adenoviruses are associated with endemic and epidemic acute conjunctivitis, large
nosocomial outbreaks reflecting virus transmission on unwashed hands or inadequately …

Background: The standard virus isolation method for detecting adenovirus is time
consuming and direct detection of viral antigens in smears has its limitations. Therefore a …
