对6名有寨卡病毒症状的以色列旅行者的血清、全血和尿液样本中是否存在寨卡病毒RNA进行了检测。症状出现后2个月(58天)全血标本呈阳性，长于尿样(26天)和血清(3天)。这些发现表明，全血在寨卡病毒感染诊断中是有用的。
Zika virus RNA presence in serum, whole-blood and urine samples from six Israeli travellers symptomatic for Zika virus disease was examined. Whole-blood samples were positive for as late as 2 months (58 days) post-symptom onset, longer than for urine (26 days) and serum (3 days). These findings suggest the utility of whole blood in Zika infection diagnosis.
