  • Title: Relevance of influenza a virus detection by PCR, shell vial assay, and tube cell culture to rapid reporting procedures.
    Author: Zitterkopf NL, Leekha S, Espy MJ, Wood CM, Sampathkumar P, Smith TF.
    Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 2006 Sep; 44(9):3366-7. PubMed ID: 16954274.
    Abstract:
    Influenza A virus was detected at higher rates and for more extended time periods with real-time PCR than with cell cultures. We show here that, using the theranostic approach, rapid viral detection and reporting can provide for early implementation and assessment of available antiviral therapy.
