Natural infection of murine norovirus in conventional and specific pathogen-free (SPF) laboratory mice

Natural infection of murine norovirus in conventional and specific pathogen-free (SPF) laboratory mice

Noroviruses cause most cases of acute viral gastroenteritis worldwide. The lack of a cell culture infection model for human norovirus necessitates the use of molecular methods and/or viral surrogate models amenable to cell culture to predict norovirus inactivation. Murine norovirus (MNV) may be used...
