This kit is used for the qualitative detection of adenovirus nucleic acid in stool samples in vitro.
Epidemiology
Adenovirus (Adv) belongs to the Adenovirus family. Adv can proliferate and cause disease in cells of the respiratory tract, gastrointestinal tract, urethra, and conjunctiva. It is mainly infected through the gastrointestinal tract, respiratory tract or close contact, especially in swimming pools with insufficient disinfection, which can increase the chance of transmission and cause outbreaks.
Adv mainly infects children. The gastrointestinal tract infections in children are mainly type 40 and 41 in group F. Most of them have no clinical symptoms, and some cause diarrhea in children. Its mechanism of action is to invade the small intestinal mucosa of children, making the intestinal mucosal epithelial cells smaller and shorter, and the cells degenerate and dissolve, resulting in intestinal absorption dysfunction and diarrhea. Abdominal pain and bloating may also occur, and in severe cases, the respiratory system, central nervous system, and extraintestinal organs such as liver, kidney, and pancreas may be involved and the disease may be aggravated.
