✦ Synopsis

This article reports for the first time in China the results of serotyping and subgrouping of some rotavirus strains obtained from faecal fluids of cases with infant diarrhoea. Infant diarrhoea rotavirus serotype 1 (Wa strain)-specific and serotype 2 (KUN strain)-specific hyperimmune sera, and infant diarrhoea rotavirus serotype 3-specific, rotavirus subgroup I-specific and subgroup 11-specific monoclonal antibodies were used in serotyping and subgrouping by means of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay of 14 rotavirus strains which had been identified by electron microscopy. Results showed that three out of four Beijing strains in 1982 belonged to serotype 2 and subgroup I rotavirus, one belonged to serotype 3 and subgroup I1 rotavirus; one out of nine Beijing strains in 1984 belonged to serotype 1 and subgroup I1 rotavirus, seven belonged to serotype 2 and subgroup I rotavirus, one belonged to serotype 3 and subgroup I1 rotavirus; and one Kunming strain in 1984 belonged to serotype 3 and subgroup I1 rotavirus.

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotypes can be established by methods based on PCR typing and serological typing. The accuracy of these methods depends on their sensitivity and specificity. These should be compared with the reference method, direct sequencing, and analysis of viral genomes. Among the sero
