Reference Range
| Adenovirus DNA, QN PCR | Not Detected (copies/mL) |
| Adenovirus DNA, QN PCR | Not Detected (Log copies/mL) |
Clinical Significance
This test is used to determine the presence of adenovirus in a patient's specimen. Organisms may be detected by PCR prior to diagnosis by immunological methods. PCR provides more rapid results than other methods, including culture. Reportable range is 500 to 2,000,000 copies/mL (2.70-6.30 Log copies/mL).
