Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) caused 131 outbreaks in Tokyo, Japan, between 1966 and 2009. The major serogroups were O6, O27, O148, and O159. The incidence of serogroups O25 and O169 recently increased. Heat-stable enterotoxin (ST) subtyping revealed that E. coli of serogroups O6, O15, O25, and O159 possessed the STh gene, whereas those serotyped as O27 and O169 possessed the STp gene.
产肠毒素性大肠杆菌(ETEC)在 1966 年至 2009 年间引发了日本东京的 131 次疫情爆发。主要血清群为 O6、O27、O148 和 O159。O25 和 O169 血清群的发病率最近有所增加。耐热肠毒素(ST)亚型分析显示,血清群 O6、O15、O25 和 O159 的大肠杆菌携带 STh 基因,而 O27 和 O169 血清型则携带 STp 基因。
