“…2) and also dot-blot hybridization are very useful to identify the noncultivable group C rotavirus of human. Group C rotavirus has been detected not only in sporadic cases of diarrhea (2,13,16,19), but also in outbreaks of diarrhea among schoolchildren (11,15,18) and a family (3). Therefore, we recommend that examinations for the group C rotavirus should be included in the laboratory diagnosis of the outbreak of acute gastroenteritis.…”

Six of the 23 college students who joined a group trip in February of 1991 developed acute nonbacterial gastroenteritis with severe diarrhea. The causal agent was identified as group C rotaviruses by electron microscopy (EM), immune-EM (IEM) and the molecular examinations including polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) on virus particles detected in the extract of watery fecal specimens of the patients. The patients positive for virus isolation showed significant increase in IEM antibody to the isolated virus in their paired sera. These findings suggest that the group C rotavirus is an important etiological agent of diarrhea and may also cause serious food-borne diarrheal disease in adults.
