Introduction of Laboratory-based Surveillance System for Enterovirus in Taiwan
並列摘要
The Enterovirus Surveillance System in Taiwan has been established by Taiwan Centers for Disease Control (Taiwan CDC) in 1999, and operated for 16 years. During this period, the Center for Research, Diagnostics and Vaccine Development, Taiwan CDC continuously developed the diagnostic techniques and improved the diagnostic quality. In cooperation with Collaborating Laboratories of Virology, the epidemic trends of different serotypes of enteroviruses were monitored, and some emerging pathogens were detected. For example, more than 40 serotypes of enteroviruses, Human Parechovirus (HPeV) 1, HPeV 3, HPeV 4, and Saffold virus type 3 were identified. This surveillance system not only monitored the enteroviruses, but also other viruses belonged to the family of Picornaviridae. However, for the purpose to make public easily understand this system, we still call it ＂Enterovirus Surveillance System＂, not ＂Picornavirus Surveillance System.＂
