Molecular characterization of extraintestinal and diarrheagenic Escherichia coli blood isolates. [PDF]
Pathogenic E. coli strains can be classified into two major groups, based on the presence of specific virulence factors: extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC) and diarrheagenic E. coli (DEC). Several case reports describe that DEC can cause bloodstream infections in some rare cases.

Evolution of diarrheagenic Escherichia coli pathotypes in India [PDF]
Abstract CONTEXT: Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli (DEC) is the leading cause of infectious diarrhea in developing countries. On the basis of virulence and phenotypic characteristics, the DEC is categorized into multiple pathotypes. Each pathotype has different pathogenesis and geographical distribution.

Outbreaks of virulent diarrheagenic Escherichia coli- are we in control? [PDF]
Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are the most virulent diarrheagenic E. coli known to date. They can be spread with alarming ease via food as exemplified by a large sprout-borne outbreak of STEC O104:H4 in 2011 that was centered in northern Germany and affected several countries.

Fluoroquinolone-resistant Escherichia coli, Indonesia [PDF]
In a recent, population-based survey of 3,996 persons in Indonesia, fluoroquinolone (FQ)-resistant Escherichia coli was prevalent in the fecal flora of 6% of patients at hospital admission and 23% of patients at discharge, but not among healthy ...

Attaching and effacing Escherichia coli downregulate DNA mismatch repair protein in vitro and are associated with colorectal adenocarcinomas in humans [PDF]
Background: Mucosa-associated Escherichia coli are frequently found in the colonic mucosa of patients with colorectal adenocarcinoma, but rarely in healthy controls. Chronic mucosal E. coli infection has therefore been linked to colonic tumourigenesis. E.

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 ...
