Figure 1 The detection of adenoviral genomic DNA by PCR using the primers designed to the hexon region. The products were detected by ethidium bromide staining of the 2% agarose gel. A 1-kb size ladder (size marker) is shown in the first lane. Adenovirus positive control PCR is seen as a 308-bp amplimer in the second lane. In the subsequent lanes are samples A92–106, A93–29, A83–90, A87–85 and A92–98. Note that samples A92–106 (case 26, Table 2) and A92–98 (case 2, Table 2) have bands that correspond in size to the positive control.
