摘要

In an investigation of hogs as possible reservoirs of human strains of enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EEC), 92 six-month-old grain- and garbage-fed hogs were examined on the farm and again at the packing plant. Of the 331 specimens obtained by swabbing the rectum, cecum, and edible meat carcass of these hogs, 125 were presumptively positive for EEC when screened by the fluorescent-antibody (FA) technique. These “presumptive positive” specimens then underwent extensive bacteriological examination and complete serological typing. The FA technique proved to be an easier, simpler, and more economical procedure than culture when a large number of specimens were examined for possible EEC serogroups. It was found especially valuable for identification of multiple serogroups of EEC within a single specimen. It also appeared to be more sensitive than cultural examination, since results were not dependent on the presence of large numbers of organisms in the specimen, or even on their viability. However, the FA technique was found to be less specific than culture because of cross-reactivity with antigenically related Enterobacteriaceae when fluorescein-labeled antisera were used. Therefore, any specimen found positive on FA examination should be considered as presumptive positive until confirmed by bacteriological examination and complete serological study.
