Rotavirus is the primary causative agent of acute gastro-enteritis, especially for children of less than 2 years old. Its association with infantile gastro-enteritis represented a very important advance in the study of gastro-enteritis, not caused by acute bacterial infection.
Rotavirus is transmitted by oral-faecal contact with an incubation period of 1-3 days.
The Adenovirus is the second most common cause of viral gastro-enteritis for children (10-15%). This virus may also cause respiratory diseases and, depending on the serotype, also diarrhoea, conjunctivitis, cystitis, etc...
At least 47 serotypes of adenovirus have been described, all sharing a common hexon antigen. Serotypes 40 and 41 are the ones associated with gastro-enteritis, whose main symptom is diarrhoea that may last between 9 and 12 days associated with fever and vomiting.

The diagnosis utility for this product has been evaluated from stool samples provided to the Microbiology Dpt. (virology section) of the Valladolid Clínico Universitario Hospital (mostly pediatric patient’s samples).
