Comparison of culture, single and multiplex real‐time PCR for detection of Sabin poliovirus shedding in recently vaccinated Indian children

Abstract: Although, culture is considered the gold standard for poliovirus detection from stool samples, real‐time PCR has emerged as a faster and more sensitive alternative. Detection of poliovirus from the stool of recently vaccinated children by culture, single and multiplex real‐time PCR was compared. Of the 80 samples tested, 55 (68.75%) were positive by culture compared to 61 (76.25%) and 60 (75%) samples by the single and one step multiplex real‐time PCR assays respectively. Real‐time PCR (singleplex and multiple… Show more

“…Therefore, virus isolation has been the standard method for poliovirus detection recommended by GPEI for many years. In the context of poliovirus containment, molecular methods for direct detection of PV from stool extracts without using cell culture were developed [57][58][59]. As long as polio is not eradicated worldwide, there is a risk for importation into polio-free regions [60][61][62][63][64][65].…”

“…Seroconversion was defined as the detection of neutralizing antibodies at a dilution of ≥1:8. In a subset of 300 infants, shedding of type 3 poliovirus was assessed using real-time PCR in stool samples collected 7 days after vaccination [16].…”
