CS indicates the isolates from healthy controls; D indicates isolates from person with diarrhea; aEPEC, atypical enteropathogenic E. coli; EAEC, enteroaggregative E. coli; DAEC, diffusely adherent E. coli; STEC, Shiga toxin producing E. coli; EIEC, enteroinvasive E. coli (EIEC).
a
Two additional strains (25 D and 27 D) were isolated from people with diarrhea, both were positive for ipaH and ial but were identified as Shigella sonnei by biochemical tests.
