“…To date, the genus Kobuvirus consists of 2 species, Aichi virus and bovine kobuvirus (2). The Aichi virus is associated with acute gastroenteritis in humans (3)(4)(5); bovine kobuvirus infection has been detected only in cattle (1). Only 1 report has described the discovery and epidemiologic features of bovine kobuvirus (1).…”

LETTERScause this technology is available in relatively few clinical laboratories, cases of infection with M. massiliense may be mistakenly attributed to M. abscessus. Although infections with M. massiliense may be underrecognized, reports of these infections are raising concern. The capacity of this bacteria to infect different body sites is further evidence for the pathogenic potential of a rapidly growing mycobacteria in human infections (10).

“…In addition, in the Central-West Region of Brazil, many studies have focused on the investigation of other gastroenteric agents in this population (Cardoso et al 1989, 2003, Camarota et al 1992, Borges et al 2006, Oh et al 2006, Andreasi et al 2008, Silva et al 2009). Therefore, the objective of this study, the first conducted in this region, was the detection of HBoV-1 and HBoV-3 in faecal samples obtained from children under five years of age presenting with acute gastroenteritis.…”

To determine the positivity rate of human bocavirus (HBoV) 1 and 3 among children who presented with acute gastroenteritis symptoms during the period of 1994-2004 in the Central-West Region of Brazil, 762 faecal samples were tested using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the detection of HBoV DNA. Primers for a segment of the non-structural viral protein 1 (NS1) gene of HBoV-1 and HBoV-3 were used. Twelve HBoV-positive samples were further characterised via genomic sequencing and phylogenetic analysis. Of the samples tested, 5.8% (n = 44) were positive for HBoV-1 or HBoV-3 and co-infection was observed in 14 (31.8%) of the 44 HBoV-positive samples. Nine of the 14 samples were also positive for Rotavirus A and five were positive for Aichi virus. The genomic sequencing of the NS1 partial sequence of 12 HBoV-samples showed that 11 samples were characterised as HBoV-1 and that one was characterised as HBoV-3. The phylogenetic analysis showed that the HBoV-1 samples had a high sequence homology to others previously identified in China, Sweden and Brazil. This is the first study conducted in the Central-West Region of Brazil to detect HBoV-1 and HBoV-3 in faecal samples from children with acute gastroenteritis. Further studies are required to define the role of HBoVs as aetiological agents of gastroenteritis

“…Despite the limited data in the literature, different studies suggested some geographical distribution of the genotypes. Only genotype A has been found in Germany and France (1,4), and genotype A is also predominant in Japan (5,15). Only genotype B has been isolated from Pakistani children (15), and genotype B was predominant in Bangladeshi children (5).…”
