    Author: Omoigberale AI, Abiodun PO.
    Journal: East Afr Med J; 1995 Apr; 72(4):220-1. PubMed ID: 7621755.
    Abstract:
    A total of 252 faecal samples were collected from 84 neonates and examined for rotavirus antigen, using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Nosocomial rotavirus infection was detected in 23.8%. This was made up of 12 (26.7%) of 45 neonates who had diarrhoea and 8 (20.5%) of 39 neonates without diarrhoea. However, rotavirus antigen was detected more in those that stayed for more than one week during hospital admission.
