Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the efficiency of a rapid immunochromatographic test kit for noroviruses of different genotypes in fecal specimens.Methods Between April 2011 and May 2015,101 norovirus-positive fecal specimens were collected from patients with diarrhea.Noroviruscs of genogroup Ⅰ (G Ⅰ) or Ⅱ (G Ⅱ) were detected using the real time RT-PCR.The capsid genes of noroviruses were amplified using the RT-PCR,and genotypes were identified through the phylogenetic analysis.The results of real-time RT-PCR and genotyping were employed as the reference,then the rapid immunochromatography test kit (RIDA(R) QUICK Norovirus) was evaluated.Results Among 101 specimens,8 strains of GⅠ and 93 strains of G Ⅱ were identified by real time RT-PCR,whereas 1 strains of GⅠ and 57 strains of G Ⅱ were identified by RIDA(R) QUICK Norovirus,with the coincidence rate of 57.4%.RIDA(R) QUICK Norovirus could detect GⅠ.9,G Ⅱ.3,G Ⅱ.4,G Ⅱ.6,G Ⅱ 7,G Ⅱ.13,G Ⅱ.17,G Ⅱ.21 and G Ⅱ.N,and it failed to detect GⅠ.2,GⅠ.6,GⅠ.N and G Ⅱ.2.The detection rates for G Ⅱ.4 strains and new G Ⅱ.17 variants were 77.8% (28/36) and 38.1% (8/21) respectively.Conclusion This assay was effective for common GⅡ noroviruses,but less reliable for new G Ⅱ.17 variants.
