Identification of Genotypes of Enterocytozoon bieneusi from Stool Samples from Human Immunodeficiency Virus-Infected Patients in Thailand
View through CrossRef
ABSTRACT
We identified genotypes of
Enterocytozoon bieneusi
from 33 stool samples of Thai human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected adult patients. Genotype D was identified at the highest frequency (36.4%), while genotype E was the second most common (15.1%). Genotypes O and
Pig
EBITS 7, previously found only in pigs, were observed in Thai HIV-infected patients. Phylogenetic analysis supported a zoonotic nature for
E. bieneusi
