Leifels M, Jurzik L, Wilhelm M, Hamza I
Int J Hyg Environ Health . 2015 Mar; 218(8):686-93. PMID: 25747544
Despite the great sensitivity of PCR in monitoring enteric viruses in an aquatic environment, PCR detects viral nucleic acids of both infectious and noninfectious viruses, limiting the conclusions regarding significance...
