Detection and phylogenetic analysis of Human bocavirus in children diagnosed with acute respiratory tract infection.

Conclusion. Human bocavirus was detected at 9.3 % prevalence in nasopharyngeal swabs obtained from children with acute respiratory tract infection. The HBoV-1 genotype was the only genotype detected, suggesting that a single genetic lineage of HBoV is circulating in Egypt. PCR and ELISA are two reliable methods for detection and diagnosis of HBoV. PMID: 32812862 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
