Molecular characterization of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli isolated from neonatal calves diarrhea
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) produces different virulence factors allowing the bacterium to colonize and develop watery diarrhea. Proteomics studies have also introduced new protein belonging to the secretion pathways, antigen 43 (Ag43), which plays important role in E. coli pathogenesis. The objective of this study was to investigate O-types and virulence factors o...
متن کاملGenotypic characterization of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli strains causing traveler's diarrhea.
This study aims to characterize the presence of virulence factors of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) causing traveler's diarrhea. Among 52 ETEC isolates, the most common toxin type was STh, and the most frequent colonization factors (CFs) were CS21, CS6, and CS3. On the other hand, the nonclassical virulence factors EAST1 and EatA were frequently present.
متن کاملmolecular characterization of virulence factors in enterotoxigenic escherichia coli
millions of diarrheal disease is made by enterotoxigenic e. coli (etec) each year, specifically in developing countries. in the pathogenesis of etec infections, the first phase is sticking of the bacterium to the minute intestinal epithelium, as a result of colonization factors (cfs) mediation and subsequently generate enterotoxins. these cfs in accordance with their structure are diverged into...
متن کاملMolecular characterization of AmpC-producing Escherichia coli clinical isolates recovered in a French hospital.
OBJECTIVES To characterize the AmpC-type beta-lactamases produced by Escherichia coli clinical isolates. METHODS E. coli isolates recovered in a French hospital in 2006 were selected on the basis of a resistance phenotype consistent with increased AmpC production. The presence of genes coding for plasmid-mediated cephalosporinases as well as the existence of mutations in the chromosome-borne ...
متن کاملEnterotoxigenic Escherichia coli: traveler's diarrhea comes home.
The article in this issue of Clinical Infectious Diseases by Beatty et al. [1] on an outbreak of diarrhea due to enterotoxi-genic Escherichia coli (ETEC) further documents the emergence of ETEC as a significant diarrheal pathogen in the United States. The main contribution of the article by Beatty and colleagues is that it describes one of the largest foodborne outbreaks ever reported in the Un...
