Virotyping and genetic antimicrobial susceptibility testing of porcine ETEC/STEC strains and associated plasmid types

IntroductionEnterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) infections are the most common cause of secretory diarrhea in suckling and post-weaning piglets. For the latter, Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) also cause edema disease. This pathogen leads to significant economic losses. ETEC/STEC s...
