The objective of this study was to develop a method for the detection of a large range of enteric viruses in
different kinds of water samples, using a concentration method suitable for the detection of infectious
viruses as well as virus RNA. Five methods of concentration of enteric viruses from water and one RNA
extraction were selected from the bibliography or developed in a laboratory and then were comparatively
evaluated by reverse transcriptase PCR (RT-PCR) on one PBS spiked sample. During those preliminary
assays, efficiency differences were noticed between the concentration protocols tested. Includes 46 references, tables.
