ASTROVIRUS

Astrovirus virus is a non-enveloped single stranded RNA virus. The delay of incubation is around one month.  The incubation period typically lasts 3-4 days; symptoms are watery diarrhae, fever, anorexia and abdominal pain. The transmission via the faecal-oral route is the most usual.


Food poisoning

After excretion in human stool, due to their structural properties,astroviruses can resist to different physical and chemical treatments. Adsorbed on particles, they can survive in different kind of environment for a long period. Food can be contaminated by a food-handler during the various stages of food production or via the environment. Thanks to their structural properties, astroviruses can persit to different food processes. The consumption of contaminated  food can lead to epidemics in the population.

real time RT-PCR method

The diagnostic by cellular culture or ELISA is not adapted to the detection of Astroviruses in environmental or food samples. Molecular techniques (real time RT-PCR) are the methods of choice forAstroviruses detection after extraction and viral RNA purification from the sample.
