A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay was used to amplify human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) directly from urine specimens taken from renal transplant patients. In serial urine yields a more consistent measure of the presence of HCMV in the urine of renal transplant patients than virus isolation, antige

## Abstract WU and KI polyomaviruses (WUPyV, KIPyV) have been detected in respiratory, blood, stool, and lymphoid tissue, but not in urine samples. PCR based detection revealed higher frequency in immunocompromised individuals. In this study the prevalence of WUPyV and KIPyV was analyzed in respira
