※ G-, non-spore forming rods. Most of them have
peritrichous flagella ( 周身鞭毛 ).
※ Primarily normal flora of gastrointestinal tract.
※ Free living, also transient colonizers of skin.
※ Facultative anaerobes: mixed acid fermentation
※ All ferment glucose; all reduce nitrates ( 硝酸盐 ) to nitrites
(亚硝酸盐) ; all are oxidase ( - ) .
Morphology & Identification

※ Primary isolation media include eosin ['iːəsɪn]-methylene-
blue (EMB) and MacConkey agar.
※ Differential selective media for specific organisms
including dyes and bile salts. (Salmonella-Shigella (SS)

Over 700 antigenic types (serotypes) are
recognized based on O, H, and K antigens in E. coli E. coli (K
antigens be also called capsular antigen).
5 、 Resistance
These organisms have no spores, so the resistance
are not strong. The resistance of pathogenic strains to bile sa
lts (胆盐) and brilliant green (煌绿) is much higher t
han that of opportunisticopportunistic strains, so these two substances are
usually used as the inhibitors in enterobacteriaceae selective
medium.

enterohemorrhagic strains of E. coli (EHEC) – is cytotoxic,
enterotoxic, neurotoxic, and may cause diarrhea and ulceration
of the G.I. tract.

(2) intestinal diseases (Gastroenteritis)
Gastroenteritis – there are several distinct types of
E. coli that are involved in different types of
gastroenteritis:
enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC)
enteroinvasive E. coli (EIEC)
enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC)
enteroaggregative E. coli (EAEC)
enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC)
caused by Pathogenic E. coli
Enterotoxigenic Enterotoxigenic E. coliE. coli (ETEC): (ETEC): cause diarrhea in infants and cause diarrhea in infants and travelers travelers
Pathogenic E. coli — ETEC
Involves two steps: Intestinal colonization, Diarrheagenic
enterotoxin(s)
Transmission is via contaminated food or water.
Pathogenesis of ETECPathogenesis of ETEC
ETEC – is a common cause of traveler’s diarrhea and
diarrhea in children in developing countries.
The disease is characterized by a watery diarrhea, nausea, abdominal cramps and low-grade fever for 1-5 days.

Pathogenic E. coli — EIEC (enteroinvasive E. coli )
▲ Shigella-like E coli
▲ invasive (penetrate and multiply within epithelial
cells)
▲ does not produce shiga toxin
▲ EIEC – The organism attaches to the intestinal
mucosa via pili and outer embrane proteins are involved
in direct penetration, invasion of the intestinal cells, and
destruction of the intestinal mucosa.
▲ There is lateral movement of the organism from one
cell to adjacent cells.
Pathogenic E. coli — EIEC (enteroinvasive E. coli )
▲ Symptoms include fever, severe abdominal cramps, malaise
(不适) , and watery diarrhea followed by scanty stools
containing blood, mucous, and pus.
Pathogenic E. coli — EPEC (enteropathogenic E. coli )
▲ bundle forming pili (intimin)
▲ moderately invasive "attaching and effacing"
▲ does not produce LT or ST; some reports of shiga-like toxin
▲ usually infantile diarrhea; watery diarrhea similar to
ETEC, some inflammation, no fever; symptoms probably
result mainly from invasion rather than toxigenesis
Pathogenic E. coli — EAEC (enteroaggregative E. coli )
EAEC –aggregation of the bacteria at the cell surface and result
in the formation of a mucous biofilm.
▲ The organisms attach via AAFI/II and Bfp and produce a
cytotoxin .
▲ Symptoms include watery diarrhea, vomiting, dehydration
and occasional abdominal pain.
Pathogenic E. coli — EHEC
Enterohemorrhagic Enterohemorrhagic E. coliE. coli (EHEC) (EHEC)
▲ represented by a single strain (serotype O157:H7)
▲ adhesins (probably mediated by fimbriae)
▲ moderately invasive
▲ produces shiga toxin but not LT or ST
▲ copious bloody discharge intense inflammatory response, may
be complicated by hemolytic uremia ( 出血性尿毒症)
▲ pediatric diarrhea caused by this strain can be fatal due to
acute kidney failure.
Pathogenic E. coli
TreatmentTreatment
▲ Treatment is based on symptomatology (症候学) .
▲ Fluid replacement is the primary treatment
▲ Antibiotics are generally not used except in severe diseases or
diseases that has progressed to a systemic stage
(e.g.hemolytic-uremia syndrome).

▲ induces the endocytic uptake of shigellae by M cells, epithelial cells,
and macrophages.
▲ deform the plasma membrane of contiguous cells.
▲ IcsB plasmid-encoded protein lyses the plasma membranes,
resulting in intercellular bacterial spread.

3. exotoxin-- Shiga toxin(vero toxin)
▲ chromosomally-encoded
▲ neurotoxic, enterotoxic and cytotoxic
▲ The toxin inhibits protein synthesis (acting on the 60S
ribosome and lysing 28S rRNA). Its enterotoxicity can make
the disease clinically appear as a diarrhea.

— Clinical significance
△ Causes shigellosis ( 志贺氏菌病 )or bacillary dysentery.
○ ○ bloody fecesbloody feces
○ ○ intestinal painintestinal pain
○ ○ puspus
△ Transmission is via the fecal-oral route.
△ The infective dose is very low (10-200 organisms).
△ There is an incubation of 1-7 days followed by fever, cramping,
abdominal pain, and watery diarrhea (due to the toxin) for 1-3 days.
△ This may be followed by frequent, scant stools with blood, mucous, and
pus (due to invasion of intestinal mucosa).
△ It is rare for the organism to disseminate.
△ The severity of the disease depends upon the species .
— S. dysenteria is the most pathogenic followed by S. flexneri, S.
sonnei and S. boydii.

Structure & Antigenic TypesStructure & Antigenic Types
▲ G-, flagellated, facultatively anaerobic bacilli
▲ three major antigens:
H or flagellar antigen;
O or somatic antigen;
Vi antigen (only a few serovars)
SalmonellaSalmonella
▲ Classification has been changing in the last few years.
There is now 1 species: S. enteritica , and 7 subspecies: 1,
2 ,3a ,3b ,4 ,5, and 6.
▲ Subgroup 1 causes most human infection
△ Based on O and H (flagella) antigens
There are 58 O antigens in salmonella, put the
salmonella that have the same O antigen together and
make a group. There are 42 groups of salmonella (A,
B,C and so on).
△ The H antigens occur in two phases; 1 and 2 and only 1
phase is expressed at a given time.
phase 1: high specific, the basis of subtype
phase 2: non-specific.
△ Salmonella typhi also has a Vi antigen which is a capsular
antigen, it is also non-specific.
