Abstract excerpt
A rapid and reliable method for the identification of five clinically relevant G genotypes (G1 to G4 and G9) of human rotaviruses based on oligonucleotide microarray hybridization has been developed. The genotype-specific oligonucleotides immobilized on the surface of glass slides were selected to bind to the multiple target regions within the VP7 gene that are highly conserved among individual rotavirus...
