Abstract: Escherichia coli that are capable of causing human disease are often classified into pathogenic variants (pathovars) based on their virulence gene content. However, disease-associated hybrid E. coli, containing unique combinations of multiple canonical virulence factors… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pntd.0010180
Abstract: Enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC) and Shigella spp (Shigella) are complex pathogens. The diagnostic assays currently used to detect these pathogens are elaborate or complicated, which make them difficult to apply in resource poor settings where… read more here.
