Background
Microbiology
- Lactose-fermenting Gram-negative bacillus within the Enterobacteriaceae
- Can also be non-lactose-fermenter on MacConkey agar that is β-hemolytic on SBA
- Member of commensal gut flora
Classification
- Has multiple pathotypes
| Group | Pathotype | Serotypes | Virulence Factors | Clinical Manifestations |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC) | Uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) | UTI | ||
| Neonatal meningitis E. coli (NMEC) | more likely to produce K1 capsule and S fimbriae | neonatal meningitis | ||
| Sepsis-causing E. coli (SEPEC) | bacteremia, sepsis | |||
| Intestinal pathogenic E. coli | Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) | O44:H34, O55:H6/7/32, O86:H2/34, O111:H2/7/12, O114:H2, O119:H6, O124:H?, O125:H21, O127:H4/6/21, O128:H2/21, O142:H6/34, O158:H23 | EPEC adherence factor, attaching/effacing changes, localized adherence pattern | severe acute watery diarrhea that can become chronic |
