Abstract:
1. A kit for detecting an enterovirus (EV) in a biological sample, comprising: one or more nucleic acid cDNA primers that hybridize to an EV VP1 encoding sequence, wherein the one or more nucleic acid cDNA primers are selected from SEQ ID NOS: 1-4; a first PCR nucleic acid primer pair having a first forward PCR primer and a first reverse PCR primer, wherein the first forward PCR primer hybridizes to an EV VP3 encoding sequence and the first reverse PCR primer hybridizes to an EV VP1 sequence; and a second PCR nucleic acid primer pair having a second forward PCR primer and a second reverse PCR primer, wherein both the second forward and second reverse PCR primers hybridize to an EV VP1 encoding sequence.
