Gastroenteritis in Auckland: An aetiological and clinical study 2005-04-14 .txt text/plain 3584 214 51 Faecal specimens from 60 patients (under six years old), most of whom were Maoris and Pacific Islanders admitted to Auckland Hospital with gastroenteritis during the months of June and July 1977, were examined for the presence of faecal viruses, bacterial pathogens and parasites. Non-agglutinable rotavirus, presumably a different serotype, was seen in both gastroenteritis and control patients. In June and July, 1977 , patients admitted to Auckland Hospital with gastroenteritis were studied to determine the relative isolation rates of (1) rotavirus, (2) other viruses identifiable by electronmicroscopy of stools, (3) enterotoxigenic Esch. Three of 18 (17 per cent) control stools contained rotavirus (one of which had non-agglutinable virus detectable on IEM). From Table III it is seen that enterotoxigenic isolates were found in both groups of gastroenteritis patients and also in non-diarrhoeal controls. Rotavirus-like particles that failed to agglutinate on IEM were seen in two gastroenteritis patients' stools and in one control patient's stool. ./cache/cord-019968-o5bdb37q.txt ./txt/cord-019968-o5bdb37q.txt
