• Immediate administration of appropriate therapy
  (most often rehydration without antibiotics);
• Rapid isolation of infected patients or carriers
  in order to limit outbreaks;
• Significant decrease of cases of diarrhea of
  unknown origin.

High performance

• Very low viral detection limit (lower than
  ELISA or latex tests) enabling:
  • Diagnosis of diarrhea with low viral loads;
  • Use of a minute stool sample : no need for
    stool suspension sedimentation >> earlier result.
• High Sensitivity:
  Rotavirus : 100 % [96.3 - 100]
  (103 positive stool specimens)
  Adenovirus : 97.6 % [87.4 - 99.6]
  (42 positive stool specimens)
• High Specificity: 100 % [98.6 - 100]
  (290 negative stool specimens)

For performance details, please refer to the VIKIA Rota-Adeno package insert.


Extreme ease-of-use

• A single stool extract for the simultaneous detection of rotaviruses and adenoviruses
  >> target rotavirus, get adenovirus as a bonus.
• Just 3 steps to perform directly on stool specimens for faster results (12 minutes)

Dilution:
50 mg (size equivalent to 1/4 of a pea) or 50 µl of stood diluted in the vial and homogenized.

Inoculation:
2 drops dispensed into the cassette sample well.

Reading: after 10 minutes.
Blue line = rotavirus
Red line = adenovirus
Blue and red lines = rotavirus and adenovirus
No control line = test invalid.

• Ready-to-use and complete kit including everything required for the procedure (vials with sticks, disposable specimen droppers)
  >> more economical test.
  

Safe procedure

Compared to some other methods, very limited contact with stool specimen.
