Abstract
Forty-three strains of adenovirus type 3 isolated from patients in Nor way between 1970 and 1991 were analyzed with four restriction endonucl eases. Bgl II was the most discriminative enzyme. Five genotypes were identified and one of these has not been described before (Ad3a12). Du ring both the epidemics in this period, new genotypes were introduced into the population. The same genotypes were identified in Norway as h ave previously been found in the northern parts of Europe, America and the Soviet Union.
