An Investigation into the utilisation of ethanolamine by uropathogenic E. coli

, 2019
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the most common bacterial infections worldwide with E. coli as the causal organism responsible for 75% of all cases. Uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) naturally reside in the gastrointestinal tract (GI tract) and infect the urinary tract via migratory ascension of the urethra.
