Escherichia coli O104 Associated with Human Diarrhea, South Africa, 2004–2011

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2012
To determine the origin of >4,000 suspected diarrheagenic Escherichia coli strains isolated during 2004–2011 in South Africa, we identified 7 isolates as serotype O104; 5 as enteroaggregative E. coli O104:H4, and 2 as enteropathogenic E. coli O104:non-H4.

Complete genome sequence and comparative metabolic profiling of the prototypical enteroaggregative Escherichia coli strain 042.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
BackgroundEscherichia coli can experience a multifaceted life, in some cases acting as a commensal while in other cases causing intestinal and/or extraintestinal disease. Several studies suggest enteroaggregative E.

Integrated Genotypic and Phenotypic Determinants Underpin the Environmental Persistence of Escherichia coli in Treated Sewage in Japan

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 6, December 2026.
This study integrated genotypic and phenotypic analyses to investigate the persistence of Escherichia coli in treated sewage in Japan. Virulence‐positive isolates were dominated by phylogroups D and B1, with astA and blaTEM as the predominant virulence and resistance determinants. Among accessory siderophore genes, fecA and chuA were the most prevalent.

Iran's Escherichia coli AMR Landscape (2010–2025): A One Health Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.
This One Health systematic review and meta‐analysis of 368 studies (2010–2025) reveals that 47.2% of E. coli isolates in Iran are ESBL‐producers, with alarming resistance to penicillins, cephalosporins, and fluoroquinolones. Critically, resistance to last‐resort antibiotics—colistin and ertapenem—is significantly increasing over time.

Multiplex PCR to Diagnose Gastrointestinal Infections: Key Limitations in Interpretation

open access: yesUnited European Gastroenterology Journal, Volume 14, Issue 7, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) panels are increasingly used for the evaluation of acute diarrhea, providing rapid and sensitive detection of a broad range of enteric pathogens. However, their widespread adoption has created important interpretive challenges for clinicians.

Ruminants are not a reservoir of enteroaggregative Escherichia coli

open access: yesAustral Journal of Veterinary Sciences, 2017
Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) causes both acute and persistent diarrhoea among children and adults in developing and developed countries. In addition, the large outbreak of food-borne illness in Europe in the summer of 2011 was caused by a ...
