ABSTRACT
Background: diarrhea syndrome has a very diverse origin, but
Escherichia coli is the leading cause of bacterial diarrhea and a
reservoir of antimicrobial resistance genes.
Objective: To identify genotypes pathogenic
E. coli genes that encode pathogenicity factors. We used the technique of real-time
PCR and evaluated the susceptibility of isolated pathogens to antibiotics.
Material and methods: longitudinal, experimental and ambispective involving 100 isolates of clinical samples from the Hospital
Infantil de Morelia Eva Samano de Lopez Mateos and the State Public Health Laboratory of Michoacan, Mexico, obtained between
September 2009 and March 2010. We used the technique of real-time PCR and evaluated the susceptibility of isolated
pathogens to ant biotics
Results: Of the typeable samples, 44% (44 strains) contained at least one gene of pathogenicity, and most were from E. enterotoxigenic
coli (50%, 22 strains), followed by E. coli enteroaggregative (41%, 18 strains) and to a lesser extent
E. coli enteropathogenic
(9%, 4 strains).
Conclusions: The results show a higher incidence of enterotoxigenic
Escherichia coli, as has been reported in most of the
authors. The less prevalent pathotype was identified with
E. coli. The rest of the pathogens was identified genotypes.
