TY - JOUR T1 - Molecular Detection of Human Calicivirus in Young Children Hospitalized with Acute Gastroenteritis in Melbourne, Australia, during 1999 A1 - Kirkwood, Carl D. LA - en PB - American Society for Microbiology YR - 2001 UL - http://buscaintegrada.pucsp.br/vufind/Record/pubmed-88222 AB - Reverse transcription-PCR and sequence analysis identified calciviruses in 32 of 60 stool specimens (negative for other enteric pathogens) obtained from children admitted to our hospital with acute gastroenteritis. The overall annual incidence rate for calcivirus was 9% (32 of 354 children). Molecular analysis identified 30 “Norwalk-like virus” genogroup II (predominantly Lordsdale cluster) and 2 “Sapporo-like virus” strains. KW - Virology ER -
