Summary: Faeces samples obtained from fourteen calves with acute enteritis were examined in the electron microscope. Two out of fourteen samples contained large numbers of rotavirus particles typically 60 nm. in diameter, lacking the outer layer of capsomeres. Larger particles (70–75 nm.) having an extra capsomere layer were not observed.
Zusammenfassung: Isolierung von Rotavirus aus Kälbern in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland In Fäzesproben von 2 Kälbern, die unter akuter Enteritis litten, wurden elektronenmikroskopisch Rotavirus‐Partikel nachgewiesen. Die Partikel hatten einen Durchmesser von 60 nm; die äußere Kapsomerenschicht fehlte.

Rotavirus A (RVA) is the primary enteric pathogen of humans and many other species. However, RVA interspecies transmission remains poorly understood. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive screening and genotyping analysis of RVA in 1706 wild animal samples collected from various regions within Yunnan Province, China.

In 2020, severe diarrhea occurred in four-month-old fattening pigs from nine farms in Shandong Province, China. Fecal samples were collected from diseased pigs and tested by PCR for the presence of mammalian orthoreovirus (MRV), porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), porcine deltacoronavirus (PDCoV), porcine rotavirus A (PoRVA), transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV), porcine kobuvirus (PKV), and pseudorabies virus (PRV). The viral RNA of MRV and PEDV was detected in the fecal samples.

Rotavirus group A (RVA) is a major cause of pediatric acute gastroenteritis (AGE). Vaccination is an effective public health strategy and Angola implemented it in 2014. This hospital-based study aimed to estimate the prevalence of RVA infection and the severity of AGE in children under five years of age treated at six hospitals in Luanda Province.

Porcine rotavirus A (RVA) is one of the major etiological agents of diarrhea in piglets and constitutes a significant threat to the swine industry. A molecular epidemiological investigation was conducted on 2422 diarrhea samples from Chinese pig farms to enhance our understanding of the molecular epidemiology and evolutionary diversity of RVA. The findings revealed an average RVA positivity rate of 42% (943/2422), and the study included data from 26 provinces, primarily in the eastern, southern and southwestern regions.
