摘要
The commercial norovirus enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit was evaluated for its reactivity to recombinant virus-like particles and the detection of natural viruses from stool samples of Japanese infants and children with sporadic acute gastroenteritis compared to reverse transcription-PCR. The kit had a sensitivity of 76.3% and a specificity of 94.9%. Our results clearly indicated that the kit allows the detection of the most prevalent genotype, GII/4. In order to increase the sensitivity of the kit, the reactivity with norovirus of GII/3 and GII/6 genotypes needs to be improved.
