Noroviruses (NoVs) are the leading cause of non-bacterial gastroenteritis with societal costs of US$60.3 billion per annum. Development of a long amplicon nanopore-based method for dual-typing the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) and major structural protein (VP1) regions from a single RNA fragment could improve existing norovirus typing methods. Application to wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) and environmental testing could enable the discovery of novel types and improve outbreak tracking and source apportionment. Here, we have developed such a method with a consensus-based bioinformatics pipeline and optimised reverse transcription (RT) and PCR procedures. Inhibitor removal and LunaScript® RT gave robust amplification of the ≈ 1000 bp RdRP + VP1 amplicon for both the GI and GII PCR assays. Platinum™ Taq polymerase showed good sensitivity and reduced levels non-specific amplification (NSA) when compared to other polymerases. Optimised PCR annealing temperatures significantly reduced NSA (51.3 and 42.4% for GI and GII), increased yield (86.5% for GII) and increased taxa richness (57.7%) for GII. Analysis of three NoV positive faecal samples showed 100% nucleotide similarity with Sanger sequencing. Eight GI genotypes, 11 polymerase types (p-types) and 13 combinations were detected in wastewater along with 4 GII genotypes, 4 p-types and 8 combinations; highlighting the diversity of norovirus taxa present in wastewater in England. The most common genotypes detected in clinical samples were all detected in wastewater while we also frequently detected several GI genotypes not reported in the clinical data. Application of this method into a WBE scheme, therefore, may allow for more accurate measurement of norovirus diversity within the population.
