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.

Captive Green Iguana Carries Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli Pathotypes [PDF]
The green iguana appears to be a carrier for bacteria causing gastrointestinal infections in humans. The presence of diarrheagenic E. coli (DEC) pathotypes, however, has not been studied in this reptile. The aim of the current work was to investigate the

Epidemiology of Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli: A Mini Review
Diarrheal diseases are a significant public health challenge, leading to high numbers of morbidity and mortality globally. Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli (DEC) strains exhibit a complex spectrum, ranging from benign gut inhabitants to severe pathogens ...

Updates on defining and detecting diarrheagenic Escherichia coli pathotypes. [PDF]
Purpose of review Several types of Escherichia coli cause acute diarrhea in humans and are responsible for a large burden of disease globally. The purpose of this review is to summarize diarrheagenic Escherichia coli (DEC) pathotype definitions and discuss existing and emerging molecular, genomic, and gut microbiome methods to ...

A TaqMan qPCR for precise detection and quantification of diarrheagenic Escherichia coli. [PDF]
Abstract Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli (DEC) are strains of Escherichia coli (E. coli) that can induce diarrhea symptoms in the host, as well as cause disease through contaminated food. To accurately and efficiently identify the five types of DEC, this study conducted a search for corresponding gene sequences in NCBI based on Chinese national ...

Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli in Argentina [PDF]
In Argentina, a total of 1,117,718 diarrheal diseases cases were notified in 2008 with an incidence rate of 28.12/100,000 inhabitants, being Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli (DEC) strains the most important etiological agents associated to them. Several community-based studies have assessed the relative frequency of DEC pathotypes, accounting for 6 to 28.

Genetic relationship of diarrheagenic Escherichia coli pathotypes among the enteropathogenic Escherichia coli O serogroup [PDF]
The genetic relationship among the Escherichia coli pathotypes was investigated. We used random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) data for constructing a dendrogram of 73 strains of diarrheagenic E. coli. A phylogenetic tree encompassing 15 serotypes from

Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli [PDF]
SUMMARYEscherichia coli is the predominant nonpathogenic facultative flora of the human intestine. Some E. coli strains, however, have developed the ability to cause disease of the gastrointestinal, urinary, or central nervous system in even the most robust human hosts. Diarrheagenic strains of E.
