BACKGROUND. Intestinal diseases caused by diarrheagenic E. coli account for a significant proportion of infections, especially in children. E. coli enteritis can occur as sporadic cases but often assumes an epidemic nature.

Evaluation of the frequency of Escherichia coli pathogroups in Brassica oleracea cultivars
Background and Objectives: Pathogenic diseases resulting from microbial contamination of food have been widely distributed in many parts of the world. Among these, Escherichia coli is one of the most important foodborne pathogenic bacteria.

Detection and risk assessment of diarrheagenic E. coli in recreational beaches of Brazil [PDF]
Marine beaches are important recreational and economic resources in Brazil, but the beaches' water quality is negatively impacted by the discharge of domestic sewage effluent. The occurrence of diarrheagenic Escherichiacoli among the E. coli isolated from three Brazilian marine beaches was investigated. Multiplex and single step PCR were used to screen

Prevalence of Diarrheagenic E. Coli Among Hospitalized Children in a Clinical Centre
Abstract Introduction. Escherichia coli is a common cause of acute diarrhea mainly in young children and, less frequently, in elderly or immunosuppressed patients. Many types of E. coli are part of the normal enteric flora, but can cause urinary tract or nervous system infections.

Prevalence data of diarrheagenic E. coli in the fecal pellets of wild rodents using culture methods and PCR assay. [PDF]
Los animales salvajes, como los roedores, parecen ser un reservorio competente de enfermedades zoonóticas transmitidas por bacterias que se diseminan en los seres humanos. Investigamos la presencia de E. coli, E. coli productora de toxina Shiga (STEC) y Salmonella en las heces de seis especies de roedores silvestres de categoría (Apodemus agrarius, A ...

(1) Background: Pathogenic Escherichia coli are divided into two groups: diarrheagenic (DEC) and extraintestinal pathogenic (ExPEC) E. coli. ExPEC causing urinary tract infections (UTIs) are termed uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) and are the most common cause of UTIs worldwide. (2) Methods: Here, we characterized 112 UPEC in terms of phylogroup, serotype,

Characteristics of cases with foodborne diarrheagenic Escherichia coli infection in Huzhou, China
Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli (DEC) is a common pathogen around the world that can cause disease with symptoms of diarrhoea. We collected all clinical DEC isolates from diarrhoea samples in three sentinel hospitals for active surveillance of foodborne ...

Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli [PDF]
Most Escherichia coli strains live harmlessly in the intestines and rarely cause disease in healthy individuals. Nonetheless, a number of pathogenic strains can cause diarrhea or extraintestinal diseases both in healthy and immunocompromised individuals.
