[Molecular Epidemiology of Echovirus 30 in Longyan City, Fujian, China, 2011～2014].

We studied the molecular epidemiology of echovirus 30 in sporadic cases of viral encephalitis in Longyan City, Fujian, China, from 2011 to 2014.Specimens of cerebrospinal fluid from patients diagnosed with viral encephalitis or infection of the central nervous system were collected. Viruses were isolated by cell culture.

[Genetic analysis of Echovirus 11 isolated from patients with viral encephalitis in Longyan, China].

This study aimed to analyse the genetically characterize isolates of Echovirus 11 from Longyan City,Fujian Province,and to reveal their genetic relationships with other isolates from China and abroad. Cerebrospinal fluid specimens from patients diagnosed with viral encephalitis or central nervous system (CNS) infections were collected from Longyan First Hospital between January and December 2011. Seven Echo11 strains were isolated and identified using the RIMV serum panel.

[Analysis of genetic characteristics of ECHO6 virus isolated from an epidemic outbreak of encephalitis in Longyan, China].

This study aimed to analyze the etiology of the encephalitis outbreak in Longyan, Fujian Province, China in 2010, in order to provide valuable information for this prevention and control of this disease. Pathogens were confirmed from cerebrospinal fluid samples with fluorescent RT-PCR, virus isolation (RD cells), and neutralization tests. Then, the VP1 fragments or whole genome nucleotide sequences were determined for four virus strains using PCR.
