Bacteroides fragilis Enterotoxin Gene Sequences in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2000 We identified enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis in stool specimens of patients with inflammatory bowel disease and other gastrointestinal disorders. The organism was detected in 11 (13.2%) of 83 patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Of 57 patients

Haemagglutination by the Bacteroides fragilis group [PDF]
Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1986 Adhesive properties of five species of Bacteroides were compared by direct haemagglutination with erythrocytes of different origin. Only strains of Bacteroides fragilis agglutinated erythrocytes and different patterns of haemagglutination were observed. None of eight carbohydrates tested inhibited haemagglutination.

The enterotoxin of Bacteroides fragilis is a metalloprotease [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 1995 During the past decade, strains of Bacteroides fragilis that produce an enterotoxin have been implicated in diarrheal disease in animals and humans. The extracellular enterotoxin has been purified and characterized as a single polypeptide (M(r), approximately 20,000). Single specific primer-PCR was used to clone a portion of the B. fragilis enterotoxin
