1. High sensitivity & specificity proven for detecting adenovirus
2. For children's health
StrongStep Adenovirus antigen test cassette is a one step immunoassay for the qualitative presumptive detection of adenovirus in human fecal specimens.
Adenovirus
Adenoviruses are medium-sized (90–100 nm), nonenveloped (naked) icosahedral viruses composed of a nucleocapsid and a double-stranded linear DNA genome. It is a group of virus that typically cause respiratory illness such as a common col, conjunctivitis, croup, bronchitis or pneumonia. It also usually causes infections in the respiratory tract and intestinal tract.
