Distribution of Virulence Genes, Enterotoxin and Biofilm Formation Among Enteroaggregative Escherichia Coli (EAEC) Strains Isolated From Stools of Children With Diarrhea in South East Iran

What is it about?

The diarrhea in children particularly in third world countries created huge problem in health care management system particularly in Africa and south Asia. The problem with many of these are not noticeable due to E. coli which also is normal flora of intestine.
