Description: Real-Time RT-PCR kit for the detection and identification of Norovirus GII in Food and Environmental samples. There is no cell culture available for the multiplication of human noroviruses. The detection by ELISA is not recommended due to norovirus genetic diversity and its lack of sensitivity. Molecular techniques (real time RT-PCR) are the methods of choice for NoV detection after extraction and viral RNA purification from the sample.
Key Points: Ready-to-Use, Specific, Sensitive, Robust
