[Replication of an isolate of human rotavirus on human cells cultured in vitro: observation by electron microscopy]. / Replication d'un isolat de rotavirus humain sur des cellules humaines cultivées in vitro: observation par microscopie électronique.

ABSTRACT

Replication of human rotaviruses on cultured human cells obtained from an intestinal carcinoid tumor was observed by electron microscopy. No enzymatic pretreatment of either the cell monolayers or the inoculum was needed. The characteristics of the vital progeny are discussed.
