Viral infections can lead to serious health issues in patients after stem cell transplantation, making monitoring essential.
A study evaluated the Clart Entherpex microarray kit's effectiveness for detecting common viruses like CMV, EBV, and HHV-6 in blood samples from transplant patients.
The results showed good correlation for CMV and EBV detections compared to standard PCR tests, but there were limitations in HHV-6 detection, indicating the need for further improvements before the microarray can be routinely used.
