Abstract excerpt

A commercial enzyme immunoassay (EIA) for the detection of astrovirus antigen was used to detect the virus during a 12-month survey of enteric pathogens in children in outpatient (n = 238) and hospital (n = 176) settings. It was found to have a 100% sensitivity and 98.6% specificity. Nineteen astrovirus isolates were detected and confirmed by northern hybridization, cell culture, and RT-PCR. The virus was...
