Evaluation of seven immunochromatographic assays for the rapid detection of human rotaviruses in fecal specimens
2007
International audience; Seven commercially available immunochromatographic assays were tested for the rapid detection of group A rotaviruses in fecal samples compared to a enzyme immunoassay (Argene). Detection of rotaviruses in 80 ELISA positive frozen stool samples showed rates superior to 90% for three reagents (Rota Strip (Cypress Diagnostics), 98.8%; Rotascreen (Microgen), 95.0%; VIKIA Rota/Adeno (bioMérieux), 92.5%); from 82.5% to 88.8% for three others (Diarlex with centrifugation (Orion Diagnostica), 88.8%; Combo Rota/Adeno (All Diag), 87.5%; Rota/Adeno Combi Stick (bmd), 82.5%) and only 70.0% for Diarlex with filtration vial (Orion Diagnostica). The evaluation of the specificity, p…
