title: [Detection of poliovirus in fecal specimens by polymerase chain reaction].
abstract: Poliovirus-RNA was detected in 11 clinical fecal specimens with AFP out of 19 samples. These comparative results between NT and Mcab identifications showed a coincidence rate of 90.90%-100%. Our experiment suggested that PCR a simple, sensitive, identification type and could be used for intratypic-differentiation of poliovirus strains. It can also be applied for the detection of poliovirus contamination in the environment.
