Abstrakt: The real time PCR assay targeting influenza A and B virus, 5 subtypes of influenza A virus (seasonal H1N1, pandemic H1N1 (2009), seasonal H3N2, pathogenic for human subtypes of avian influenza H5 and H7), respiratory syncytial virus, and adenovirus was developed. The analytical sensitivity of the developed assay was 1 x 10(3) genome equivalents per ml. The diagnostic sensitivity of the method was 1 x l0(3)-10(4) viral particles per ml. Experiments with human DNA/cDNA and viral cDNA showed a markedly high diagnostic specificity of the developed PCR assay. In the assay of the developed PCR test, 50 nasopharyngeal swab specimens were tested. The etiology was identified in 33 samples.
