Antitoxin titers to heat-labile Escherichia coli enterotoxin were measured in Apache children hospitalized with acute diarrhea and in Apaches of different age groups without diarrhea in Whiteriver, Ariz. The study suggests that in this locale, exposure to enterotocigenic E. coli is probably widespread and occurs early in life. Antitoxin titer rises after idarrheal disease associated with enterotocigenic E. coli infection, however, were not regulary found.
对亚利桑那州怀特河地区因急性腹泻住院的阿帕奇族儿童以及不同年龄组无腹泻的阿帕奇族人，测定了针对不耐热大肠杆菌肠毒素的抗毒素滴度。该研究表明，在这个地区，接触产肠毒素大肠杆菌的情况可能很普遍，且在生命早期就会发生。然而，与产肠毒素大肠杆菌感染相关的腹泻病后抗毒素滴度升高的情况并非经常出现。
