Effects of preinoculation rotavirus antibody titers on the probability of infection and illness were evaluated in adults challenged orally with different doses of a virulent human rotavirus (CJN strain). Preinoculation titers considered were serum neutralizing antibody, serum rotavirus IgA, serum rotavirus IgG, jejunal neutralizing antibody, jejunal rotavirus IgA, and stool rotavirus IgA. Doses of virus of either 9 × 101 or 9 × 103 focus-forming units were administered to 19 subjects each. Twenty-six were infected; 15 experienced illness. The probability of either outcome was unrelated to dose. Stool rotavirus IgA titers could not be correlated to either infection or illness, but the mean titers of the other five antibodies were significantly or nearly significantly lower in subjects infected or ill, when compared with those negative for either outcome. When analyzed by stepwise logistic regression, only serum rotavirus IgG remained significantly (P = .005) related to the probability of infection, and only jejunal neutralizing antibody remained significantly (P = .01) related to the probability of illness.
