Abstract

We report here the sequences of two reference strains of parvovirus B19 (B19V) used for quantitation of B19V DNA. One reference strain has been established by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the other by the European Pharmacopeia (Ph. Eur.) and belong to B19V genotype 1a1 and 1a2, respectively.
