A process for detecting norovirus nucleic acid in a sample is provided including producing an amplification product by amplifying a norovirus nucleotide sequence using a forward primer of SEQ ID NO: 1, 4, or 10 and a reverse primer of SEQ ID NO: 2, 5, or 11, and detecting the amplification product to detect norovirus in the sample. Also provided are reagents and methods for detecting and distinguishing GI or Gil norovirus from other infectious agents. A kit is provided for detecting and quantifying norovirus in a sample. |
