Abstract
Five heat-labile, partially purified toxic products of Escherichia coli were distinguished by isoelectric focusing, molecular weight, and neutralization with homologous and heterologous antisera. Only two affected the morphology of Y-1 cells, induced fluid accumulation in rabbit ileal loops, and stimulated production of cyclic AMP in Vero cells; these two did not cross-neutralize and only one showed cross-neutralization with cholera antitoxin. The remaining three products were cytotoxic for Vero cells.Entities:
