Buy Willi Fox Norovirus Stool Test (5 pieces)

Noroviruses are the leading cause of non-bacterial gastroenteritis epidemics in children and adults worldwide and the second leading viral cause of intermittent diarrhea in all age groups. Viral infections can particularly endanger children / adolescents and the elderly, as well as immunocompromised patients. The Willi Fox - Norovirus GGI & GGII Rapid Test is a visual one-step immunoassay for the rapid, qualitative detection of noroviruses in human stool samples. This test is used as an aid in diagnosing norovirus infection. Noroviruses belong to the Caliciviridae family and comprise a group of very heterogeneous RNA viruses with single-stranded RNA.

Noroviruses are divided into five genogroups (GG), of which only three (GGI, GGII and GGIV) are pathogenic for humans. Noroviruses, which are often isolated in cases of acute gastroenteritis, belong to two genogroups: The genogroup GGII (especially genotype GII.4) is responsible for the majority of norovirus infections worldwide. This genotype includes the Bristol Virus, Lordsdale Virus, Toronto Virus, Mexico Virus, Hawaii Virus and Snow Mountain Virus.
