There are many similarities in the clinical manifestations of human norovirus and SARS-CoV-2 infections, and nucleic acid detection is the gold standard for diagnosing both diseases. In order to expedite the identification of norovirus and SARS-CoV-2, a quantitative one-step triplex reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) method was designed in this paper.
A one-step triplex RT-qPCR assay was developed for simultaneous detection and differentiation of human norovirus GI (NoV-GI), GII (NoV-GII) and SARS-CoV-2 from fecal specimens.
The triplex RT-qPCR assay had high detection reproducibility (CV < 1%) and sensitivity. The lower limits of detection (LLOD95) of the triplex RT-qPCR assay for each target site were 128.5-172.8 copies/mL, and LLOD95 of the singleplex RT-qPCR assay were 110.3-142.0 copies/mL. Meanwhile, among the detection of clinical oropharyngeal swabs and fecal specimens, the results of the singleplex and triplex RT-qPCR assay showed high agreement.
The triplex RT-qPCR assay for simultaneous detection of NoV-GI, NoV-GII and SARS-CoV-2 from fecal specimens has high clinical application value.
人类诺如病毒感染与新型冠状病毒肺炎(SARS-CoV-2)感染在临床表现上有许多相似之处,核酸检测是这两种疾病诊断的金标准。为加快诺如病毒和SARS-CoV-2的鉴定,本文设计了一种定量一步三重逆转录聚合酶链反应(RT-qPCR)方法。
建立了一种一步三重RT-qPCR检测方法,用于同时从粪便标本中检测和区分人类诺如病毒GI型(NoV-GI)、GII型(NoV-GII)和SARS-CoV-2。
三重RT-qPCR检测具有较高的检测重复性(CV<1%)和灵敏度。三重RT-qPCR检测各靶点的最低检测限(LLOD95)为128.5-172.8拷贝/毫升,单重RT-qPCR检测的LLOD95为110.3-142.0拷贝/毫升。同时,在临床咽拭子和粪便标本检测中,单重和三重RT-qPCR检测结果高度一致。
粪便标本同时检测NoV-GI、NoV-GII和SARS-CoV-2的三重RT-qPCR检测方法具有较高的临床应用价值。
