abstract：:Sapporo-like viruses (SLVs) are associated with acute gastroenteritis in humans. Due to a limited supply of available reagents for diagnosis, little is known about the incidence and pathogenicity of these viruses. We have developed a first-generation generic reverse transcriptase (RT) PCR assay based on a single prime...
