Role of Syndrome-specific Testing in Diagnosis of Adenovirus Infection There are some specific tests for the diagnosis of relevant syndromes. These tests confirm or rule out the syndrome and aid in the diagnosis of other possible viral diseases. Here are some syndrome-specific tests: • Acute Respiratory Disease - Nasopharyngeal swab for culture of respiratory viruses - Monospot assay for Epstein-Barr virus. - Rapid group A Streptococcus throat swab and culture • Pharyngoconjunctival fever - Nasopharyngeal swab for culture - PCR of respiratory viruses - Monospot assay - Rapid group A Streptococcus throat swab and culture. • Epidemic Keratoconjunctivitis - Viral swab cultures of conjunctival scraping and secretions - Bacterial swab cultures of conjunctival scraping and secretions • Acute Hemorrhagic Cystitis/Nephritis - Urinalysis - Viral culture - Bacterial culture • Gastroenteritis - Bacterial culture - Toxin assay
