Visualization by immune electron microscopy of a 27-nm particle associated with acute infectious nonbacterial gastroenteritis

A Z Kapikian et al. J Virol. 1972 Nov.

Abstract

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. Both experimentally and naturally infected individuals developed serological evidence of infection; this along with other evidence suggested that the particle was the etiological agent of Norwalk gastroenteritis.
