Sapoviruses are etiologic agents of human gastroenteritis. We detected sapovirus in untreated wastewater, treated wastewater, and a river in Japan. A total of 7 of 69 water samples were positive by reverse transcription-PCR. Phylogenetic analysis of the viral capsid gene grouped these strains into 4 genetic clusters.
札幌病毒是人类肠胃炎的病原体。我们在日本的未经处理的废水、经处理的废水以及一条河流中检测到了札幌病毒。在69份水样中,共有7份通过逆转录聚合酶链反应呈阳性。对病毒衣壳基因的系统发育分析将这些菌株分为4个基因簇。
