Weitzel T, Reither K, Mockenhaupt FP, Stark K, Ignatius R, Saad E, Seidu-Korkor A, Bienzle U, Schreier E (2007): Field evaluation of a rota- and adenovirus immunochromatographic assay in children with acute diarrhea in Ghana
J. Clin. Microbiol. 45 (8): 2645-2697.

We evaluated the Rida Quick Rotavirus/Adenovirus Combi rapid immunochromatographic test (ICT) under field conditions in Ghanaian children with acute diarrhea. Compared to PCR, sensitivities and specificities were 75% and 95% (rotavirus) and 22% and 84% (adenovirus). In resource-poor settings, ICTs may help to overcome difficulties in the diagnosis of rotavirus.
