A Novel GV sapovirus from food-borne suspected gastroenteritis outbreak in Nagoya.. human gut metagenome

Sapovirus (SaV) is now recognized as an important pathogen for both sporadic and outbreak gastroenteritis for all ages in the world, and huge food-borne suspected gastroenteritis outbreaks have also been reported. In this study, we report the detection of a novel GV sapovirus strain from food-borne suspected gastroenteritis outbreak using metagenomic sequencing approach.

札幌病毒（Sapovirus，SaV）现已被认定为全球范围内引发各年龄段人群散发性与暴发性胃肠炎的重要病原体，同时也有大规模食源性疑似胃肠炎暴发事件的相关报道。本研究通过宏基因组测序技术，从一起食源性疑似胃肠炎暴发事件中检测到一株新型GV型札幌病毒毒株。
