Abstract
Enteric infection with enterotoxinogenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is one of the most important causes of diarrhea in developing countries and is also the most frequent cause of diarrhea among travelers. Illness resulting from ETEC infection is characterized by watery diarrhea, often accompanied by low grade fever, abdominal cramps, malaise, and vomiting. In its most severe form ETEC infection may result in cholera-like disease leading to severe dehydration and sometimes death.KeywordsCholera ToxinProtective AntigenMucosal ImmunityImmunological MemoryCholera VaccineThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
