Abstract

          Viral contamination of the water bodies is neglected area of research in Saudi Arabia. The study, first of its kind, using RT- PCR technique, reports Hepatitis A virus (HAV) and Rotavirus (RV) presence in almost 13% of the samples collected. This report may trigger the detection of accurate viral contamination status in Saudi Arabia's environmental waters.
