The GoTaq® Enviro PMMoV Quant Kit, Quasar® 670, can be used for identifying human fecal contamination in a sample, process control for sample preparation, RT-qPCR analysis of wastewater and other relevant environmental samples, and normalizing other nucleic acid targets (e.g., SARS-CoV-2 RNA in wastewater). PMMoV (Pepper Mild Mottle Virus) is a single-stranded RNA virus infecting peppers. Due to the nature of the human diet, the virus and its genetic signature are present in human feces, acting as a human fecal indicator. PMMoV is widely distributed and commonly found in wastewater, surface water and other environmental water sources.
