Rapid assessment of viral water quality using a novel recombinase polymerase amplification test for human adenovirus
21 Aug 2019
Abstract excerpt
Sensitive and rapid methods for determining viral contamination of water are critical, since illness can be caused by low numbers of viruses and bacterial indicators do not adequately predict viral loads. We developed novel rapid assays for detecting the viral water quality indicator human adenovirus (HAdV). A simple 15-min recombinase polymerase amplification step followed by a 5-min lateral flow detection is...
