Mengovirus, murine norovirus, ms2, féline calicivirus, turnip crinkle virus are potential candidates for process control in food and environmental virology. Based on the type of samples (water, bms, fruits...) the type of virus sought (nov, hav, env ...), their accessibility, different surrogates could be used as process controls. A specific PCR design (proves, primers) will be necessary to detect the presence of the process control chosen. Furthermore, the chosen process control shall not be present naturally in food samples, and comply to specific standards requirements (e.g. ISO).

Thanks for your question, Allison.  We do not currently offer services for BSL-3 viruses but have been working with method developers on alternatives for validation needed to meet BSL-2 requirements.  Please email me at ecrowley@qlaboratories.com if you would like more information.
