Abstract

A neutralizing monoclonal antibody, B37:1, against a human rotavirus (B37) with a "super-short" RNA pattern was derived. The antibody gave serotype-specific reactions with a panel of standard rotaviruses and was reactive in an enzyme immunoassay. Epidemiological studies of this new human serotype should now be possible.
