Highlights

  • Enteroaggregative E. coli (EAEC), another diarrheogenic E. coli (DEC) pathotype, is identified by the characteristic aggregative pattern of adherence (AA) in HeLa/HEp2 cells; bacteria attach in aggregates to cell surfaces as well as around cells [1,3]

  • Among 481 children (

  • Colony hybridization assays used to search for additional E. coli virulence genes [1,3,4,5,7] showed that all strains carried eae, bfpA, and perA, and 13 carried the EAF sequence

Summary

Introduction

5. Rimmelzwaan GF, van Riel D, Baars M, Bestebroer TM, van Amerongen G, Fouchier RA, et al Influenza A virus (H5N1) Infection in cats causes systemic disease with potential novel routes of virus spread within and between hosts. Typical EPEC expresses the localized pattern of adherence (LA), which is characterized by compact bacterial clusters on HeLa and HEp-2 cells [1]. Atypical EPEC most often expresses the LA-like pattern (with loose bacterial clusters) or adherence patterns of other DEC pathotypes [2].
