Rotaviral gastroenteritis may result in mortality for populations at risk such as infants, the elderly and immunocompromised patients. The viruses replicate in the cells nucleus and tend to be host species specific producing a characteristic cytopathic effect. Because rotavirus is extremely difficult to culture, it is unusual to us isolation of the virus in diagnosing an infection. Instead, a variety of techniques have been developed to detect rotavirus in feces. The pathogens from Adenovirus can cause diarrhea in children. Infections are most frequently seen in children less than two year of age, but have bee found in patients of all ages. Further studies indicate that adenovirus are associated with 4-15% of all hospitalised cases of viral gastroenteritis. Rapid and accurate diagnosis of gastroenteritis due to adenovirus is helpful in establishing the etilogy of gastroenteritis and related patient management.

The Rotavirus and Adenovirus test are a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of rotavirus and adenovirus in human feces specimen, providing results in 10minutes. The test utilized antibody specific for rotavirus and adenovirus to selectively detect rotavirus and adenovirus from human feces specimen.
