Molecular Epidemiology of Rotaviruses in Nigeria: Detection of Unusual Strains with G2P[6] and G8P[1] Specificities

1 Nov 2001

Abstract excerpt

During an epidemiological study on rotaviruses among diarrheic children in the northeastern and middle belt regions of Nigeria, the distribution of G and P types was investigated in 127 stool specimens. By PCR G typing, the G type of rotaviruses in 97 samples was identified. Interestingly, an unusual G8 type, as well as common G1, G2, and G3 types, was detected more frequently (31 of 112; 27.7%). Eleven samples...
