Characterization of enteropathogenic and enteroaggregative Escherichia coli isolated from diarrheal outbreaks.
Virulence characteristics of diarrheal outbreak-associated Escherichia coli O55:NM, O126:NM, and O111:NM were examined. The E. coli O55:NM strains were atypical enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC), while the E. coli O126:NM and O111:NM strains should be classified as enteroaggregative E. coli (EAggEC). The contributions of EPEC and EAggEC to the human disease burden in Japan might be significantly ...
متن کاملDetection and Molecular Characterization of Enteroaggregative Escherichia Coli from Diarrheal Patients in Tertiary Hospitals, Southern Thailand.
Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) is a member of diarrheagenic E. coli, which plays an important role in human infections in developing countries. Investigations of EAEC in diarrheal patients at Hat-Yai and Pattani Hospitals, southern Thailand identified 5 EAEC strains, which were classified into serogroups, O44 and O127a. All 5 EAEC contained the global transcriptional regulator gene, ...
متن کاملphenotypic and genotypic characterization of enteroaggregative escherichia coli strains isolated from diarrheic children in iran
conclusions these results indicated that eaec strains isolated from iranian children with diarrhea were heterogeneous and showed high resistance rates against commonly used antibiotics, which was similar to that reported in studies performed in other countries. results significant percentage of local eaec strains carried the virulence plasmid genes and formed biofilms. in addition, these strain...
متن کاملPhenotypic and Genotypic Characterization of Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli Strains Isolated From Diarrheic Children in Iran
BACKGROUND Several studies performed in developed and developing countries have identified enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) as the emerging cause of pediatric diarrhea. OBJECTIVES This study investigated the phenotypic and genetic characteristics of EAEC strains isolated from children with diarrhea between 2007 - 2008 in Tehran, Iran. MATERIALS AND METHODS EAEC strains were examine...
متن کاملGenomic Characterization of Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli From Children in Mali
BACKGROUND Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) is a cause of epidemic and sporadic diarrhea, yet its role as an enteric pathogen is not fully understood. METHODS We characterized 121 EAEC strains isolated in 2008 as part of a case-control study of moderate to severe acute diarrhea among children 0-59 months of age in Bamako, Mali. We applied multiplex polymerase chain reaction and compa...
