Human Serogroup C Rotavirus in Finland

Abstract
Among 600 rotavirus specimens collected in Finland during 1985–1987, 6 isolates were found to be related to serogroup C rotavirus by RNA profile analysis and solid phase immune electron microscopy (SPIEM). The group C isolates originated from 4 children (4.5, 4.5, 6.5 and 7 years old) with diarrhoea.
