| isolation and molecular characterization of aichi viruses from fecal specimens collected in japan, bangladesh, thailand, and vietnam. | aichi virus is a new member of the family picornaviridae, genus kobuvirus, and is associated with human gastroenteritis. this study detected aichi virus in 28 of 912 fecal specimens which were negative for rotavirus, adenovirus, norovirus, sapovirus, and astrovirus and were collected in japan, bangladesh, thailand, and vietnam during 2002 to 2005. | 2007 | 17522267 |
| detection of human enteric viruses in japanese clams. | a total of 57 clam packages that were collected from supermarkets and fish markets from 11 different sites in western japan between 8 december 2005 and 6 september 2006 were examined for human enteric viruses (i.e., norovirus, aichi virus, rotavirus, adenovirus, hepatitis a virus, and astrovirus), using pcr and reverse transcription pcr. sixty-one percent of the packages were contaminated with one type of virus, 9% had two different types of viruses, 28% had three different types of viruses, and ... | 2008 | 18724766 |
| prevalence and genetic diversity of aichi viruses in wastewater and river water in japan. | aichi virus (aiv) genomes were detected in 12 (100%) influent and 11 (92%) effluent wastewater and 36 (60%) river water samples. among 260 strains identified, 255 were genotype a and 5 were genotype b. this is the first report describing the molecular characterization of aivs in aquatic environments in japan. | 2011 | 21257803 |
| sequence analysis of the capsid gene of aichi viruses detected from japan, bangladesh, thailand, and vietnam. | sequence analysis of the capsid gene of aichi viruses was performed on 12 strains detected in japan, bangladesh, thailand, and vietnam during 2002-2005. the phylogenetic tree constructed from 17 nucleotide sequences of the capsid gene of the strains studied and reference strains demonstrated that aichi virus strains clustered into two branches. a classification of aichi viruses based on the capsid gene was proposed, in which lineage i consists of the aichi virus strains detected from japan, thai ... | 2008 | 18461624 |
