Colonization factors of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli.

Advances in Applied Microbiology, 2015
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is a major cause of life-threatening diarrheal disease around the world. The major aspects of ETEC virulence are colonization of the small intestine and the secretion of enterotoxins which elicit diarrhea. Intestinal colonization is mediated, in part, by adhesins displayed on the bacterial cell surface.

Variation in Enterotoxigenicity of Escherichia coli

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1977
The possibility that the variable severity of diarrheal disease due to enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli might be explained by quantitative differences in the activity of heat-labile enterotoxin was examined. The amount of toxin secreted by 13 enteropathogenic strains of E.

In vitro mechanism of antibacterial action of a citrus essential oil on an enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli and Lactobacillus rhamnosus

Journal of Applied Microbiology, 2020
This study investigated the in vitro mechanism of action of a commercial citrus EO, Brazilian orange terpenes (BOT), on an enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) isolated from pig gut and on Lactobacillus rhamnosus.

Enterotoxigenic escherichia coli in sweden

Infection, 1977
The adrenal cell test for detection of heat-labile enterotoxin-producing Escherichia coli was performed on faecal specimens collected over a period of six months from 648 patients with diarrhoea. The patients came from all parts of Sweden. A total of 72 enterotoxigenic strains were found in 27 patients.

Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli in central Canada

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1980
During epidemiological studies carried out in urban and rural areas of the midwestern Canadian province of Manitoba, we cultured enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) from 16 (1.7%) of 945 diarrheal stools and 4 (0.3%) of 1,282 normal stools. ETEC was found in not more than 2.3% of diarrheal stools obtained from any population during any season ...

Virulence Factors of Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1977
Further evidence for the role of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli as an etiologic agent of diarrhea is presented. A retrospective study of 71 cases of diarrhea in Mexican children demonstrated that greater than 40% of them harbored E. coli that produced heat-labile and/or heat-stable enterotoxin.
