Norovirus （NoV）， which transmits through food and water， can cause acute gastroenteritis worldwide. However， there is no specific antiviral drug. To prevent the spread of NoV outbreaks and intervene in time， only rapid detection and screening can identify NoV at the early stage. Traditional detection methods are time-consuming， labor-intensive， and the operation is cumbersome， which is not suitable for the real-time detection of NoV. Therefore， the establishment of NoV rapid detection technology has become an ongoing issue for researchers. Though many rapid detection methods have been reported， it is difficult to compare these methods because of the unculturable nature of NoV in vitro. Therefore， the currently reported rapid detection technologies are sorted out， and the research status at home and abroad is briefly introduced. The application and development trend of molecular biology， immunology， biosensor and other technologies in the rapid detection of NoV is reviewed. The detection limit， detection time， advantages and disadvantages of the methods are compared. It is expected to provide a reference for the on-site rapid detection of NoV and subsequent research of relevant novel detection technologies.
