Association of Cytolethal Distending Toxin Locus cdtB with Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli Isolated from Patients with Acute Diarrhea in Calcutta, India

1 Nov 2003

Abstract excerpt

Among Escherichia coli strains isolated from stool specimens from patients with acute diarrhea, 1.4% were found to harbor cdtB by use of enrichment cytolethal distending toxin (CDT) PCR. These isolates were identified as being enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC). In a retrospective study using a probe hybridization assay, 6 of 138 EPEC strains were found to harbor the cdtB locus. cdtB-positive isolates mostly belong...
