First report of human astrovirus MLB2 in Brazil detected in feces of children with acute gastroenteritis living in the state of Roraima, Northern Brazil

association with nonclassical astroviruses in pediatric population. This child had previously tested negative for Norovirus, Sapovirus, and HAstV. In this study, the observed low frequency (0.4%) of nonclassical astroviruses is similar to the rates found, in fecal samples from children with AGE symptoms, in other regions of the world. This study was the first to identify HAstV-MLB1 in the Mid-West region of Brazil, the data will contribute to the molecular epidemiology of novel astroviruses in the pediatric population.
