| detection of rotavirus in faeces by latex agglutination. | human rotavirus (hrv) in faeces of patients may be readily detected with high sensitivity and specificity using latex agglutination (la) on a glass slide by making use of the cross-reactivity of anti-calf rotavirus (crv) antibody. latex particles were coated with anti-crv immunoglobin. the antibody coated particles (ac-l) are specifically agglutinated by both crv and hrv, and the agglutination is evident macroscopically within a minute. to examine the sensitivity and reliability of the la method ... | 1981 | 6262411 |
| the 30- to 54-nm rotavirus-like particles in gastroenteritis: incidence and antigenic relationship to rotavirus. | the 30- to 54-nm rotavirus-like particles were observed in the stool specimens of 17 children with gastroenteritis. these small rotavirus-like particles were shown to be antigenically related to the commonly described 68-nm rotavirus using the techniques of immune electron microscopy and elisa (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay). four specimens containing the small rotavirus-like particles were shown to contain an antigen of a common human rotavirus serotype (type 2). the findings of small rotav ... | 1981 | 6278067 |
| stool electrolyte content and purging rates in diarrhea caused by rotavirus, enterotoxigenic e. coli, and v. cholerae in children. | one hundred twenty children below 5 years of age with diarrhea caused by vibrio cholerae, enterotoxigenic escherichia coli, or rotavirus were studied for stool electrolyte composition and purging rates. the mean purging rate in cholera was 60.1 ml, in etec 39.2 ml, and in rotavirus infection 31.4 ml/kg/8 hour. the mean stool sodium concentration in cholera was 88.9 mmol/l, in etec 53.7 mmol/l, and in rotavirus infection 37.2 mmol/l. stool potassium concentration did not show much variation, mean ... | 1981 | 6262471 |
| characterization of rna polymerase products of nebraska calf diarrhea virus and sa11 rotavirus. | the endogenous rna polymerase of the calf rotavirus was shown to synthesize single-stranded rna transcripts of one polarity which were identical in size to the denatured parental double-stranded rna segments. the transcripts were notable in their absence of polyadenylate sequences. the polymerase activity associated with the cores of calf rotavirus was minimally altered by the reaction, since calf rotavirus cores could be reused after purification, whereas the rna polymerase products appeared to ... | 1981 | 6262526 |
| [use of staphylococcus aureus protein "a" to detect rotavirus in the stools (author's transl)]. | the authors have used an anti-rotavirus immunserum fixed to the staphylococcus aureus protein a to detect this virus in the stools. a study on animal faeces showed a very good agreement in results with elisa technique. the study on human stools shows a good agreement with elisa technique and identical results to this technique in comparison with electronical microscopy. the agglutination reaction appears as a quick, simple and specific technique to find out rotavirus in the stools. | 1981 | 6262701 |
| [indirect elisa technic for detection of human rotavirus in faeces (author's transl)]. | a relatively simple indirect elisa technic is described for detection of human rotavirus in faeces. 329 faeces from children diarrhoea had been tested and rotavirus were found in 30% cases. | 1981 | 6262703 |

| neonatal bovine enteritis: detection of rotavirus by counterimmunoelectrophoresis and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. | counterimmunoelectrophoresis and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay specific for rotavirus were performed on 253 calf gut and fecal specimens from eastern north dakota. rotavirus antigen was detected in 29 specimens by counterimmunoelectrophoresis and in 52 specimens by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. all of the counterimmunoelectrophoresis-positive specimens were positive by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. the counterimmunoelectrophoresis and the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, using a ... | 1981 | 6266620 |
| inner structures of some coronaviruses. | when treated with formaldehyde, tween 80, sodium oleate and nonidet p-40, avian infectious bronchitis virus, porcine transmissible gastroenteritis virus, neonatal calf diarrhea coronavirus, porcine hemagglutinating encephalomyelitis virus as well as the human coronavirus show similar inner structures by negative staining. the first one is an inner membranous bag. this structure could be evaginated following treatments used and does not show the characteristic projections of coronaviruses. subseq ... | 1981 | 6266623 |
| seasonal fluctuations in the occurrence of enterotoxigenic bacteria and rotavirus in paediatric diarrhoea in addis ababa. | this study (march 1977-february 1978) was performed at the ethio-swedish pediatric clinic, addis ababa, to determine whether there were any seasonal fluctuations in the occurrence of diarrhoea associated with enterotoxigenic enterobacteria (eteb), rotavirus and two parasites (giardia lamblia and entamoeba histolytica).a total of 1161 children (962 patients and 199 controls) were investigated. eteb were isolated in 12.2% of the patients and 4.5% of the controls, rotavirus in 27.8% and 8%, and par ... | 1981 | 6266682 |
| variation in human rotavirus electropherotypes occurring between rotavirus gastroenteritis epidemics in central australia. | the changes in human rotavirus electropherotypes, occurring during a period including two rotavirus gastroenteritis epidemics in 1976 and 1979 in relatively remote central australia, were determined by polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic analysis of the rotavirus genome ribonucleic acid. a number of different electropherotypes were present during each of the epidemics, although a single type was predominant in each one. the predominant electropherotype of the first epidemic persisted in the area ... | 1981 | 6266963 |

| staphylococcal protein a-enzyme immunoglobulin conjugates: versatile tools for enzyme immunoassays. | this report describes the use of peroxidase-labeled staphylococcal protein a to prepare conjugates suitable for direct enzyme immunoassays (eias). such conjugates were used to develop direct eia systems for the measurement of two antigens associated with human infections, human rotavirus and haemophilus influenzae type b polysaccharide. both systems were as sensitive or more sensitive than currently available eias for the measurement of standard antigens. in addition, both systems could be utili ... | 1981 | 6267138 |
| poly(a) polymerase activity in human rotavirus. | a poly(a) polymerase enzymic activity was found in partially purified preparations of a human rotavirus. the activity was demonstrated using conditions similar to those utilized for the detection of the poly(a) polymerase previously described in reovirus (incubation at 43 degrees c in 70 mm-tris buffer ph 7.5 containing 12 mm-mn2+). the enzymic activity was associated only with complete, double-shelled particles. characterization of the poly(a)-containing product of the in vitro reaction by gel ... | 1981 | 6267183 |
| protein synthesis in cells infected with bovine rotavirus. | bovine rotavirus was found to multiply efficiently in llc-mk2 cells, a continuous line of rhesus monkey kidney, with a growth cycle which was essentially completed within 9 h after infection. the presence of low concentrations of trypsin (10 microgram/ml) in the virus inoculum was essential for infectivity. polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of infected cell extracts demonstrated the synthesis of at least eight virus-specific polypeptides 6 h post-infection with mol. wt. ranging from 102 x 10(3) ... | 1981 | 6267184 |
