Abstract
We investigated an outbreak of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) O159:H20 associated with the consumption of a tossed-noodle dish in a high school in 2016. Thirty-three ETEC strains isolated from clinical and food samples were genetically indistinguishable. The outbreak strains were resistant to third-generation cephalosporins and harbored a blaCTX-M-15 gene on a 97-kb self-transferable IncK plasmid. This is the first outbreak caused by CTX-M-15-producing ETEC strains.Entities:
