ABSTRACT
The mechanisms of pathogenicity in EPEC strains were studied in tissue culture. Escherichia coli was isolated as the predominant organism in the primary culture of 1293 (70.54%) diarrhoeal cases. 284 (90.44%) cases from the age group of 1-6 months showed Escherichia coli as the predominant organism. Classical Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli) were detected in 311 (24.05%) cases. Among EPEC isolates 277 (89.06%) did not produce either LT or ST 32(10.28%) produced LT or ST. 2 strains produced verotoxins belong to serotypes 086; K61, 026; K60, sero groups 0.86K61, 0.142K 86, 0.128K 67, 0.126K 71, 0125K 70 0119K69 showed localised adherence and serogroups 0111K58-055K59 showed both localised and diffused adherence to HeLa cells.
