Abstract

This study was performed to evaluate the incidence of and risk factors for Enterocytozoon bieneusi carriage in an orphanage in Bangkok, Thailand. E. bieneusi has been identified by PCR every 2 consecutive months since June 2003. The incidence ranged between 0.6 and 4.7/100 person-months. Person-to-person transmission was indicated by risk factor analysis and genotyping information. Copyright © 2009, American Society for Microbiology. All Rights Reserved.
