Noro- and Sapoviruses belong to the virus family Caliciviridae and are important causative agents of acute epidemic gastroenteritis in man. In many cases transmission of Noro- and Sapoviruses occurs via contaminated food or water and the respective diseases are therefore designated as food borne. Recently, the presence of Noro- and Sapoviruses in farm animals has attracted increasing attention. Clinical symptoms were observed after experimental infection of cattle and swine with members of the two virus groups. Thus far it is not known, whether virus transmission from animals to man does occur.
