Captive green iguana is a reservoir of diarrheogenic <i>Escherichia coli</i> pathotypes

2019-05-02

Abstract excerpt

The green iguana appears to be a reservoir for bacteria causing gastrointestinal infections in humans. The presence of diarrheogenic E. coli (DEC) pathotypes, however, has not been studied in this reptile. The aim of the current work was to investigate the prevalence of DEC in the intestines of 240 captive green iguanas, their phylogenetic groups, and the antibiotic susceptibility profile. E. coli strains were i...
