Abstract

Diseases associated with Escherichia coli infection are the subject of renewed interest due to emerging conditions such as hemolytic uremia syndrome. A collection of 15 strains of beta-hemolytic E. coli was isolated from diarrheic feces and diseased tissues of ferrets. All 15 strains were positive in specific PCR assays for the presence of hlyA, pap1, and cnf1. Seven of the cnf1-positive isolates were tested and shown to have a cytopathic effect on HeLa cell monolayers. The pathogenesis of these strains warrants future study.
