Operon - Simple / Stick Rotavirus Rapid Test Kit

One-step immunochromatographic test for the detection of Rotavirus in stool samples. Rotaviruses are one of the main causes of acute gastroenteritis. Gastroenteritis from enteric viruses can be mortal in risk populations such as children, the elderly or immunosuppressed individuals.With an incubation period of 1-3 days, infection is via the fecal-oral route. Characteristic symptoms are vomiting, watery diarrhea at 3-8 days, fever and abdominal pain. Immunization following the initial infection is incomplete, although later infections tend to be less severe than the first.
