Among these, enteroaggregative E. coli strains (EAggEC) have been associated with persistent childhood looseness of the bowels. whatever strains of EAggEC produce a heat-stable toxin (EAST-1) that differs from others depict previously. The main goal of this case-control use up was to determine the prevalence of EAggEC and EAST-l-producing E. coli strains as a suffice of diarrhoea in children in Spain and to study their in-vitro readiness to 21 antimicrobial agents. In the case conference (115 children) 22 (190/,) isolates and 4 (3.

5%) isolates were EAST-1producing E. coli and EAggEC, respectively, whereas in the control group (79 children) four (5%) isolates produced EAST-1 (p = 0.005) and three (3.8%) isolates were EAggEC. The relegate study suggests that EAST-l-producing E. coli strains are associated with diarrhoetic diseases in Spanish children, whereas EAggEC strains are not. Moreover, EAST-l-producing E. coli strains showed a high susceptibility to all the antimicrobial agents tried but for ampicillin. Introduction The aetiology of diarrhoea in infants and children is quite varied in developing and true countries; in Spain Campylobacter spp. are the near general cause [1].
