adenoviral
Concerning certain pathogens
Adenoviral means relating to or caused by adenoviruses—a family of viruses that commonly cause respiratory infections, conjunctivitis, and gastroenteritis.
The term appears most often in medical contexts: adenoviral infection, adenoviral conjunctivitis.
In biotechnology, adenoviral vectors are modified viruses used to deliver genes into cells for research or gene therapy.
