[0002] The invention relates to biotechnology, in particular to a half-set RT-PCR detection method for canine astrovirus. Background technique
[0003] Astroviruses are non-enveloped, single-stranded positive-sense RNA viruses with a five- or six-pointed star shape and belong to the family Astroviridae. Astrovirus was first discovered in 1975 by Madeley and Cosgrove in the stool of children with gastroenteritis detected by electron microscopy. Canine Astrovirus was first discovered in 1980 by Williams when he observed diarrheal dog feces with an electron microscope.
