| Popis: | An outbreak of epidemic diarrhea (nonbacterial acute gastroenteritis) in Fukuoka was studied electron microscopically and electrophoretically. From the result of electron microscopy, rotavirus particles about 70 nm in diameter were observed in fecal samples. However, the serological study did not reveal any antigenic relatedness to the ordinary rotaviruses by RPHA. The outbreak appeared to be caused by group C rotaviruses, based on the pattern of the RNA genome segments in polyacrylamide gels. |
