Detection kits for the Ad5 Type C
Available in TaqMan format for analysis
Adenoviruses are double-stranded DNA, non-enveloped icosahedral viruses with a size of 60-90 nm. Adenoviruses represent the largest non-enveloped viruses (around 30-38Kbp) with a unique fiber associated with each penton base of the capsid that helps in its attachment to the host cell via the coxsackie-adenovirus receptor on the surface of the host cell. There are 51 immunologically distinct human adenovirus serotypes that can cause human infections ranging from respiratory disease (mainly species HAdV-B and C), and conjunctivitis (HAdV-B and D), to gastroenteritis (HAdV-F serotypes 40 and 41). Adenoviruses are unusually stable to chemical or physical agents and adverse pH conditions, allowing for prolonged survival outside of the body and water. Adenoviruses are primarily spread via respiratory droplets, however they can also be spread by fecal routes as well. Human Adenovirus Type C species contains 4 different serotypes: 1, 2, 5 and 6, and these adenoviruses are known to cause respiratory infections in humans.
