Abstract
The authors have developed cDNA probes for poliovirus type 1 and hepatitis A virus labeled with both **3**2P dATP and dCTP which are reported to be capable of detecting as little as one femtogram of nucleic acid, one tissue culture infectious dose of poliovirus type 1 or one radio-immuno-focus unit of hepatitis A virus. Results are obtained within 72 hours as cell culture is not necessary. The authors have successfully applied this method to the detection of enteroviruses in both water and shellfish concentrates.
