ABSTRACT
The genetic diversity of 41 typical and atypical enteropathogenic Ëscherichia coli" (EPEC) strains of the serogroup O55 was analysed by using the random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) method. All typical EPEC O55 strains were grouped in two clusters (A and C) and belonged to serotype O55H6, while cluster B included all atypical strains, which were of the serotype O55H7. The three groups also included non-motile strains. RAPD may be a useful method for epidemiological studies on "E. coli" O55 infection
