Detection of Rotaviruses in the Day Care Environment by Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction

1 Sept 1992

Abstract excerpt

Group A rotavirus is an important cause of morbidity among infants and toddlers in day care centers. Transmission by the fecal-oral route is well established, but fomites and environmental surfaces may also play an important role in transmission. A highly sensitive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay was used to detect rotavirus RNA in day care environments. Areas sampled included floors, diaper change areas,...
