Abstract
Three virus strains were isolated in DK cell cultures inoculated with fecal specimens of dogs manifesting diarrhea. The isolates were identi fied as reoviruses on the basis of their biological and physico- chemi cal properities. They possessed reovirus type 3 antigenic specificity revealed by hemagglutination-inhibition and neutrarization tests with the reovirus prototype strains. It was suspected that the isolates wer e participated in this diarrheic cases.
