a

AA probe refers to a specific DNA probe present in some but not all EAggEC strains (see references 3 and 7). 

b

ND, not determined. 

c

Hly determined on blood agar plates. 

d

hlyA determined by PCR amplification with hlyA primers. 

e

LDH activity and IL-1β release were determined with both HMDM and J774 cells.
