متن کاملVibrio cholerae outbreak in Italy.
To the Editor: Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAggEC) heat-stable enterotoxin 1 (EAST1) was originally found as an enterotoxin of EaggEC (1). Recently, Yamamoto et al. (2) reported that the EAST1 gene, or its variants, were present not only in EAggEC but in other diarrheagenic E. coli, including some entero-pathogenic E. coli (EPEC) and enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC). Hedberg et al. (3) fo...
