    Author: Chieochansin T, Thongmee C, Vimolket L, Theamboonlers A, Poovorawan Y.
    Journal: Jpn J Infect Dis; 2008 Nov; 61(6):479-81. PubMed ID: 19050360.
    Abstract:
    Human bocavirus (HBoV) is a novel virus which can cause respiratory tract disease in infants and children. Recently, the prevalence of this virus was studied worldwide not only in the respiratory tract, but also in the gastrointestinal tract. The results of this study focusing on the HBoV detection in stool samples showed that HBoV could only be found in the stool of children with acute gastroenteritis (0.9%), not in the healthy control samples. Moreover, the complete coding sequences of these HBoV also showed very conserved sequences.
