Quantitative analysis and virulence phenotypes of atypical enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) acquired from diarrheal stool samples from a Midwest US hospital
Infectious diarrhea causes approximately 179 million illnesses annually in the US. Multiplex PCR assays for enteric pathogens detect enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) in 12–29% of diarrheal stool samples from all age groups in developed nations. The aim of this study was to isolate and charac...
