Abstract

Antigen distributions of rotavirus and adenovirus were detected by enzyme immuno assay (EIA) in patients with acute gastroenteritis in Seoul from 2008 to 2012. Tested feces sample numbers from patients were 9,597. Antigen distributions of rotavirus and adenovirus were 13.9%, and 2.1%, respectively. The patterns of each viral pathogen may give potentially effective data for epidemiological studies.
