Abstract
Human Aichivirus (Aichivirus A; AiV-A) is a positive-sense single-strand RNA non-enveloped virus that has been detected worldwide in various water environments including sewage, river, surface, and ground over the past decade. To develop a method with excellent sensitivity and specificity for AiV-A diagnosis from water environments such as groundwater, a combination capable of reverse transcription (RT)-nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was developed based on existing reported and newly designed primers. A selective method was applied to evaluate domestic drinking groundwater samples. Thus, a procedure was devised to select and subsequently identify RT-nested PCR primer sets that can successfully detect and identify AiV-A from groundwater samples. The findings will contribute to developing a better monitoring system to detect AiV-A contamination in water environments such as groundwater.
