Norovirus (NoV tipo I e II) and Hepatitis A virus (HAV) represent an emerging problem for food safety. These foodborne viruses are insidious and few virions elicit a dangerous infection. Virions vitality persists till two weeks after shedding in the enviroment, thus largest part of the diagnosed infections results from consumption of water or contaminated food primarily mussels and clams, fresh vegetables and berries. PCR is the only technology detecting HAV and NoV and in 2013 an ISO norm for standardizing the experimental method was issued. This standard when coupled to the Real-Time detection kit PVW08A-50 allows the creation of a calibration curve to titre HAV contamination in an unknown sample in full compliance to ISO15216.
