₦ 13,860.00

Test Name: Adenovirus (serology and antigen detection)

Description: Detects adenovirus infection via antibody (IgG/IgM) or antigen assays. Adenoviruses cause respiratory illness, conjunctivitis, gastroenteritis, hepatitis, myocarditis, and encephalitis. Diagnosis may involve serology, antigen detection (DFA/EIA), PCR, or virus culture.

Clinical Use: Used to confirm infection in symptomatic patients; serology shows previous exposure; acute IgM or rising titer suggests recent infection. PCR and antigen tests provide rapid diagnosis.

Specimen: Serum for antibodies; swabs (respiratory, ocular, stool), CSF, blood for PCR/antigen; collect early in illness.
