TL;DR: A 27-nm particle was observed by immune electron microscopy in an infectious stool filtrate derived from an outbreak in Norwalk, Ohio, of acute infectious nonbacterial gastroenteritis, and this along with other evidence suggested that the particle was the etiological agent of Norwalk gastroEnteritis.
Journal ArticleDOI
An epidemiologic study of altered clinical reactivity to respiratory syncytial (rs) virus infection in children previously vaccinated with an inactivated rs virus vaccine
Journal ArticleDOI
Hepatitis A: Detection by Immune Electron Microscopy of a Viruslike Antigen Associated with Acute Illness
TL;DR: Spherical 27-nanometer particles were visualized in stools obtained from hepatitis A patients in the acute phase of the disease and suggest that it is the etiologic agent of hepatitis A.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recovery in tracheal organ cultures of novel viruses from patients with respiratory disease.
TL;DR: A sharp decrease in the rate of virus isolation during the winter of 1965-66 was noted, similar to that reported by others, and the recovery and properties of these 6 viruses form the basis of this report.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical Immunity in Acute Gastroenteritis Caused by Norwalk Agent
TL;DR: Findings indicate two forms of immunity for viral gastroenteritis, one of short and the other of long duration, and factors other than serum antibody appear important in immunity to Norwalk gastroEnteritis.
