Duplex real-time RT-PCR assay for detection and subgroup-specific identification of human respiratory syncytial virus

Abstract excerpt

Human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) is a leading cause of acute respiratory illness in young children worldwide. Reliable detection and identification of HRSV subgroup A and B infections are essential for accurate disease burden estimates in anticipation of licensure of novel HRSV vaccines and immunotherapies. To ensure continued reliability, molecular assays must remain current with evolving virus strains....
