[Evaluation of norovirus rapid detection kit].
OBJECTIVE
Evaluating the accuracy and safety as well as the equivalence compared with the control kit of RIDA QUICK Norovirus detection kit(R-Biopharm, Germany).


METHODS
Based on the results of commercially available IDEA Norovirus detection kit (ELISA), the sensitivity and specificity and accuracy of RIDA QUICK Norovirus detection kit (immunochromatographic assay) were evaluated.


RESULTS
The sensitivity and specificity of RIDA QUICK Norovirus detection kit were 98.4% and 92.4%, and the accuracy was 97.6% compared with the control kit.


CONCLUSIONS
RIDA QUICK Norovirus detection kit has good sensitivity and specificity for the detection of norovirus antigens.
