May aid sapovirus surveillance in gastroenteritis; leaves open clinical validation before routine diagnostic use.
A newly developed real-time RT-PCR assay successfully detects all 18 known human sapovirus genotypes without cross-reactivity, providing an improved screening tool.
T et al. (2018) studied Acute gastroenteritis (sapovirus infection). Broader-range sapovirus real-time RT-PCR assay vs. Previous TaqMan probe-based real-time RT-PCR assay was evaluated on Detection of human sapovirus genotypes and analytical sensitivity. A newly developed broader-range real-time RT-PCR assay successfully detected all 18 human sapovirus genotypes with high sensitivity and no cross-reactivity to other common enteric viruses.
