The impact of sewage discharge on the microbiological quality of shellfish is well known. Bivalves filter large volumes of water as part of their feeding activities, and thus accumulate and concentrate different types of pathogens from human fecal pollution. The aim of the study was to evaluate the presence, in these molluscs, of six different groups of enteric viruses: norovirus (genogroups I, II, and GIV), adenovirus, enterovirus, astrovirus, hepatitis A virus, and hepatitis E virus. The present study is the first to document the presence of GIV noroviruses in shellfish.
