Abstract

Human bocavirus (HBoV), a newly cloned human\ virus of the genus Bocavirus, was detected by PCR from nasopharyngeal swab samples (8 of 318; 5.7%) collected from children with lower respiratory tract infections. HBoV may be one of the causative agents of lower respiratory tract infections in young children. Copyright © 2006, American Society for Microbiology. All Rights Reserved.
