Escherichia coli strains isolated from patients with diarrhoea are a heterogeneous group displaying several pathogenic mechanisms. Pathogenic E. coli cause disease by producing virulence factors, the genes for which are located on chromosomes, plasmids and phage genomes. This article reviews modern microbiological techniques which have enhanced our knowledge of the pathogenesis of infections caused by diarrhoeagenic E. coli and the various new diagnostic techniques available.
从腹泻患者中分离出的大肠杆菌菌株是一组具有多种致病机制的异质菌群。致病性大肠杆菌通过产生毒力因子致病，这些毒力因子的基因位于染色体、质粒和噬菌体基因组上。本文综述了现代微生物学技术，这些技术增进了我们对致泻性大肠杆菌引起感染的发病机制的了解，以及现有的各种新诊断技术。
