Screening of negative samples by virus isolation with the new panel not only confirmed the discrepancies previously observed but also indicated that these were not associated with a specific genomic region. However, none of the PCR-positive samples were positive on all the different PCRs and preferential amplification was not obtained even when a more sensitive real-time RT-PCR was used. Furthermore, the primer-dependent amplification, most likely caused by the presence of viral fragments, demonstrates the necessity of confirming a single positive PCR result, certainly in the presence of contradictory virus isolation results. The new PCR panel, in combination with sequencing, can be used as a tool to provide additional information on the nature of the viral RNA present in the sample.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1-2</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16682087?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record></records></xml>
