One hundred and fifty enterotoxigenic strains of Escherichia coli (ETEC) isolated from infants with acute diarrhoeas in New Caledonia, Vanuatu and Wallis and Futuna were examined for serotypes. Twenty serotypes were identified, 5% of E. coli (7 strains) were rough and 8% (12 strains) were untypable. The serotypes 06, 025, and 078 are enterotoxigenic at 100%. The serotypes 027 and 073 classically enterotoxigenic did not produce any enterotoxin. This study opens up a possibility that the predominant enterotoxigenic serotypes in that region of the South Pacific are probably different from the serotypes proposed in the pool of sera to identify ETEC.
对从新喀里多尼亚、瓦努阿图以及瓦利斯和富图纳群岛急性腹泻婴儿中分离出的150株产肠毒素大肠杆菌（ETEC）进行了血清型检测。共鉴定出20种血清型，5%的大肠杆菌（7株）为粗糙型，8%（12株）无法分型。血清型06、025和078的产肠毒素率为100%。经典产肠毒素的血清型027和073未产生任何肠毒素。该研究表明，南太平洋该地区主要的产肠毒素血清型可能与用于鉴定ETEC的血清库中所提议的血清型不同。
