  • Title: Isolation of cytophatic strains of rotavirus from pigs.
    Author: Ferrari M, Gualandi GL, Gelmetti D.
    Journal: Microbiologica; 1986 Jul; 9(3):287-94. PubMed ID: 3018451.
    Abstract:
    Twenty-two rotavirus isolates were recovered from piglets suffering from diarrhea. The isolates readily propagated in MA-104 cell cultures where they induced typical cytopathic effects (CPE) and possessed the physicochemicals properties of the members of rotavirus genus, Family Reoviridae. The electron microscopy study, conducted in MA-104 infected cells, revealed virus particles which possessed the peculiar morphology of rotavirus. The isolates were neutralized by a reference porcine rotavirus antiserum: all were devoid of hemagglutinating activity for red cells of swine, cattle, sheep, rabbit, chicken and guinea pig.
