title: Detection sensitivity of influenza rapid diagnostic tests.
abstract: The sensitivity of influenza rapid diagnostic tests (IRDTs) currently available in Japan for various influenza virus strains, including human H7N9 and H5N1 isolates, were compared and it was found that all of the IRDTs examined detected these viruses; however, their detection sensitivities differed.
