Figure. Molecular methods used to identify human adenovirus (HAdV) co-infections. A–D) Vaccinated sample 7274. A) Microarray hybridization profile. White and yellow rectangles indicate low-positive HAdV-C and HAdV-B2 targets, respectively. Spot colors denote hybridization signal intensity (white > yellow > green > blue). Species and corresponding serotype designations are indicated on the left. Probe designations (E1, E2 = serotype-specific E1A probes; H1, H2 = serotype-specific hexon probes; F1, F2 = serotype-specific fiber probes) are indicated above each array. B) Adenovirus Consensus kit optical density values. *, amplification positive. The horizontal line is the manufacturer's significance threshhold. C) Multiplex species-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR). m, molecular mass marker. Species designations are to the right of the corresponding band. D) PCR verification with independent serotype or species-specific primers. E–H) Unvaccinated sample 10756. E) Microarray hybridization profile. F) Adenovirus Consensus kit optical density values. G) Multiplex species-specific PCR. H) PCR verification with independent serotype-specific primers.
