Background: Studies suggest that cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection exacerbates ulcerative colitis (UC) refractory to immunosuppressive therapies. Early and accurate diagnosis of CMV infection is important for the treatment of UC. We evaluated the usefulness of quantitative real-time polymerase chain r

## Abstract A sensitive and specific real‐time RT‐PCR assay to detect rotavirus in stool samples was optimized and validated using a wide range of rotavirus genotypes. The target of the original TaqMan® assay is an 87 bp fragment of the highly conserved non‐structural protein 3 (NSP3) gene. Here we
## Abstract Human adenoviruses (hAdVs) are associated with acute respiratory tract infections in pediatric populations and have been identified as a cause of outbreaks in institutional settings. Rapid diagnosis of hAdV infection is critical for appropriate and timely management. This study reports
The viral cytopathic effects of cytomegalovirus (CMV) are rarely encountered in conventional cervical vaginal smears and have never been reported in a liquid-based gynecologic sample (SurePath). We present results of a liquid-based gynecologic sample (SurePath) from an asymptomatic patient with clas
