| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Immunological testing method for infectious disease, such as influenza virus is simple and quickly.However, this method have problem with limit of detection.This study revealed that development of high sensitivity PCR method.In particular, there is possibility that flu test showed negative and patient wasn't prescribed appropriate medicine.Establishment of high sensitivity detecting method provide with prevention in the sympton aggravation for compromised patient and the infection from spreading.This study, flu test showed negative but PCR method showed positive. In short, PCR method is effective for early stage.
