ABSTRACT:
DNA sequences of hCMV are obtained by restriction of the hCMV genome, the resulting fragments free of fragments cross-hybridizing with human DNA and other viruses may be used for hybridization with clinical samples suspected of containing hCMV to provide a sensitive method for detection of hCMV at low particle number.
