Description
The most sensitive and specific method for diagnosing various forms of adenovirus infection. Depending on the primary localization of the infectious process, the test can be performed on an oropharyngeal swab, conjunctival swab, or bronchial lavage. The method allows detection of the pathogen in the early stages of the disease, when the immune response is still weak and antibodies in the blood are not detectable.
