Rapid screening method for enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli [PDF]
A rapid screening method for detection of Escherichia coli producing heat-labile enterotoxin is described. Single colonies are transferred directly from primary culture plates into 96-well microculture plates containing 0.3 ml of brain heart infusion broth in each well.

Production of a subunit vaccine candidate against porcine post-weaning diarrhea in high-biomass transplastomic tobacco [PDF]
Post-weaning diarrhea (PWD) in piglets is a major problem in piggeries worldwide and results in severe economic losses. Infection with Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is the key culprit for the PWD disease.

Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is a major cause of diarrhea in children and travelers in developing countries. ETEC is characterized by the ability to produce major virulence factors including colonization factors (CFs) and enterotoxins, that ...

Confronting Challenges to Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli Vaccine Development
The enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) are a diverse and genetically plastic pathologic variant (pathovar) of E. coli defined by their production of heat-labile (LT) and heat-stable (ST) enterotoxins.

Immunity to Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli [PDF]
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli strains represent the most frequent etiological agent of travelers diarrhea. Challenge studies with several of these strains were undertaken in volunteers to evaluate the mechanisms of disease-induced immunity. Seventeen students and other community volunteers were given 10

Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli infections have been linked to non-diarrheal sequelae however, the reasons for this are unclear. Here, the authors present an additional role of heat-labile toxin in disrupting the structure and function of intestinal ...

Antibiotic resistance in Enterotoxigenic and non-enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli [PDF]
Antibiotic disk susceptibility tests were done on 220 strains of Escherichia coli belonging to serotypes reported in the literature to be associated with the production of enterotoxin. A total of 128 (58%) were resistant to one or more antibiotics, sulfa drugs, or chemotherapeutic agents.

CEACAMs serve as toxin-stimulated receptors for enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli
Significance Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC), a leading cause of acute watery diarrheal illness in children, have also been linked to nondiarrheal sequelae including malnutrition. ETEC produce heat-labile toxin (LT) to stimulate the production of
