Intimin or EaeA protein has been implicated in the attaching/effacing lesion caused by entero-hemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) in the intestine but it is not produced by all EHEC and is therefore not adequate as a marker for EHEC. Hemolysins are produced by a high percentage of verotoxigenic E. coli (VTEC) and could be a marker for EHEC, but their distribution and relation to virulence are not known. We used...
