Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Diarrhoeagenic Escherichia coli pathotypes (DEP) are leading causes of diarrhoeal illness worldwide, yet their identification requires molecular methods often unavailable in resource-limited settings. We evaluated E. coli load as a potential screening indicator for DEP presence in diarrhoeal samples. Methods Stool samples from 252 diarrhoeal patients and 70 non-diarrhoeal controls were anal...
