To evaluate the sensitivity, specificity, and clinical concordance of the Rapidtesta Rota-Adeno immunochromatography kit for simultaneous detection of group A rotavirus and adenovirus.
Tested cross-reactivity and detection limits against 5 strains of group A rotavirus, 13 strains of adenovirus, and other intestinal viruses.
Evaluated diagnostic concordance in clinical samples in comparison to other commercial immunochromatographic assays and latex agglutination tests.
Achieved detection limits of 10(4.4) TCID50/ml for group A rotavirus (SA11) and 10(4.45) TCID50/ml for adenovirus serotype 3, exhibiting approximately 10-fold higher analytical sensitivity than latex agglutination tests.
Demonstrated high concordance with other immunochromatographic assays: 99.2% (121/122) for group A rotavirus and 98.6% (138/140) for adenovirus.
Showed concordance with latex agglutination kits of 94.5% (69/73) for group A rotavirus and 92.3% (84/91) for adenovirus, with zero cross-reactivity to other intestinal viruses.
