Abstract
A commercial competitive enzyme immunoassay kit, Escherichia coli ST EIA, was compared with the conventional infant mouse assay for sensitivity and specificity in detecting E. coli heat-stable enterotoxin. Thirty-one of 46 strains of E. coli tested were positive by both assays, while 15 strains were negative. The sensitivity of the ST EIA kit was up to 64-fold lower than the infant mouse assay.
