Molecular and biological characterization of the human-bovine rotavirus-based reassortant rotavirus

Abstract

Rotaviruses (RV) are the leading cause of acute infantile gastroenteritis, associated with elevated mortality in low-income countries. Morbidity and mortality, length and rates of hospitalization due to RV gastroenteritis are dropping. Improving the quality of newborns life is an ongoing challenge for health-care providers. In this study, homemade reassortant human-bovine rotavirus was developed and biological activity and molecular characterization of candidate vaccine were evaluated for the vaccine stability. Virus titration and purification of reassortant rotavirus strains were evaluated by plaque assays, electropherotyping. The genetic stability after first, third and sixth passage was by sequencing. Due to WHO recommendation, developingment of national capacity for vaccine production in appropriate quantities and at affordable prices is the cornerstone of developing global vaccination policies. Such studies are critical to producing national vaccines and modeling herd protection.
