Detection of an Adherence Factor of Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli with a DNA Probe

Abstract

A DNA probe to detect genes conferring localized adherence of enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) to Hep-2 cells was evaluated by using E. coli isolates from the stools of Peruvian infants with and without diarrhea. The probe was both sensitive and specific and revealed that Hep-2 adherence (because of the EPEC adherence factor [EAF] was more frequent in some O serogroups of EPEC than in others. Those serogroups in which EAF is almost always found have been designated class I EPEC; serogroups in which EAF is rarely found have been designated class II. Both class I (EAF-positive) and class II EPEC are associated with diarrheal disease.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
