Dysentery in calves caused by an atypical strain of Escherichia coli (S102-9)	2002-11-13		.txt	text/plain	4194	200	54	Two of the four isolates were inoculated alone into 4-day-old gnotobiotic calves deprived of colostrum; neither calf developed dysentery but microscopic lesions identical to those produced by S102-9 were detected in the large intestines of both animals. An atypical strain of Escherichia coli (designated $102-9) was isolated from the faeces and intestinal contents of farm calves aged 8--21 days old during an outbreak of dysentery (Hall et al., 1985) and reproduced the disease after experimental infection of gnotobiotic calves . $102-9 was shown by an immunoperoxidase method to adhere to the mucosae of the large bowel in gnotobiotic and farm calves with dysentery, and microscopic lesions were seen in the colonic and rectal mucosae (Hall et al., 1985) . coli with atypical characteristics were an important cause of calf diarrhoea by examining a culture collection of 659 isolates from field outbreaks of diarrhoea, and thirdly, to investigate by experimental infection of gnotobiotic calves, the association between the atypical characteristics of these isolates and pathogenicity.	./cache/cord-007481-4mj5isyl.txt	./txt/cord-007481-4mj5isyl.txt
