Altogether 587 children with diagnosed acute enteric infections were examined. In 26.4% of them pathogenic enterobacteria were detected, and in 59%, opportunistic enterobacteria. In 38.2% of children these bacteria were found to be the etiological factor of the disease. A reverse relationship between the contamination of feces with pathogenic enterobacteria and the age of children was established.
