Abstract
in English, German

Of six newborn cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis) naturally delivered and normally nursed five developed diarrhea after oral administration of human rotavirus. Virus excretion was observed in the stool of four animals. This virus was transmitted to four out of six other monkeys causing diarrhea in only one animal.

Sechs neugeborene Cynomolgusaffen (Macaca fascicularis) wurden oral mit menschlichem Rotavirus infiziert und natürlich aufgezogen. Diarrhöe wurde bei fünf und Virusausscheidung bei vier der infizierten Tiere beobachtet. Das ausgeschiedene Virus konnte auf vier von weiteren sechs Tieren übertragen werden, von denen nur ein Tier erkrankte.
