Prevalence of O-serogroups, virulence genes, and F18 antigenic variants inEscherichia coliisolated from weaned piglets with diarrhea in Korea during 2008–2016

Abstract excerpt

To diagnose colibacillosis, detection of O-serogroups and virulence genes has been recommended worldwide. The prevalence of virulence factors can fluctuate over time. The objectives of this study were to determine the prevalence of O-serogroups, virulence genes, and F18 subtypes among pathogenic Escherichia coli isolated from weaned piglets with diarrhea in Korea. Between 2008 and 2016, 362 E. coli were isolated...
